building a shelter
once there was this moment in life
i had nothing but anger
i had no permission to vent
she does not want me to
she says it only brings hurt
she thinks it is all my fault
once there was this moment
i found what i was looking for
a moment to release
but i was not allowed
and all i could do was to keep the flower in a stone of tears
once there was this moment
i read the most horrific thing
i saw horrific images
and reacted in a horrific way
but i frightend her,
as soon as i realized i called her up to check if all was well
i failed to be there for them
once there was this moment
again to hear the terrible
to feel what she felt
and again i was denied to act
you know how they want a strong man who acts upon those things
who can do what is needed
who protect without self awareness ?
you know what
they don't, they talk big, but they don't want to lose
and deny the act, afraid to lose
but then they have
cause we can't contain it forever
i can try
while i build a shelter
to keep me in, to keep you save
to hold distance
so you will never feel the need for protection
from me
you know what they say where i come from ?
to protect is to be sure it never happens
never happens again,
i can not give that to you
not any more
but i will be there
in mind
in spirit
i will always give you my love and energy
just to get through
and if i had enough
to keep you save.
i build a shelter
just to shut me in
to keep the world save
from me.
for you.
