Her Walls

by @Malika26

She took her time She made her walls She made them with her broken pieces She could not bear to be broken again She could not let people see her ashes She was void, like an unidentified planet in the universe She was simple, yet so complicated She could hide a world in her eyes, But she was so easy to read She was not that strong But she held her shoulders high And found within herself the strength to go on The world always labeled her The words were glued to her front and her back But she did not care She was more than a body She was a soul She was more than curves She was mountains of knowledge and wisdom She was beautiful, her smile held more than shooting stars She was ashes, yet shining as a reborn phoenix She was a secret, a murmur, and a thought She was everything that the world would never know She was the universe, she was the galaxy And she was within her walls.
