The Tower
Locked in a tower
Dark and swirling stones
Dragon built of trauma and pain
Guarding my crown and throne
True love doesn’t fail or feign
So I’m trapped, waiting for the hero to arrive
A strong and deserving soul
In service this man will thrive
But what he feels no one knows
I sit, wishing his heart would be brave
Overcome his wounds and fear of rejection
Dreaming of his love takes me out on a wave
Seeing myself in his reflection
Hoping he will come take me away
That he will slay whatever stands in our way
7/25/23 For Shawn

Locked in a tower - You're becoming an introvert, shunning away from others either due to the pain and/or guilt they can inflict, or your feeling of inadequacy. These reasons being the dragon keeping all at bay. You await your "knight in shining armor" (Lover, friend, family) to rescue you from the isolation. To feel the sun on your face once again and look forward to each day.
May your savior arrive to rescue you. It's crossed my mind that the prisoner and the savior can be the same person, you. Best of luck in being freed. And if Shawn is the Knight, may he arrive shortly on his steed. Supportive hug your way.
