SHAME

Don’t hide behind 
That wall of shame
Don’t think that I 
Don’t feel your pain. 

My armor cracked
And somewhat worn
My heart strings tattered
Weathered and torn.

Bruised and battered
Stripped of my pride
Bare emotions
Felt inside.

Kindred spirits
Wounded souls
The same sad story
Has been told.
