PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I feel so cold.

I can’t remember the last time

I touched someone

in a loving way.

I don’t let anyone get close,

in fact I shy away

from any offered embrace.

I’m just scared that if I let you in

you’ll just hurt me

like all the rest.

So I keep my heart guarded

like a fortress

of broken promises.
