Unbreakable
I surrounded myself by glass
somehow thinking it was
impenetrable.
But it’s glass…
weak and see-thru
and you saw my flaws.
In a short amount of time,
you found the way
to break that glass.
Like before,
I crumbled to the power
you held over me…
Until my knees hit the floor
and I remembered
the pain.
It resonated throughout my body
til my legs strengthened
and made me rise again.
I stared down at those shattered
pieces of glass and realized
that’s not where I belong.
I will rebuild myself…
and this time,
the wall will be stronger
and you will never break it.
