I became the shelter, a safe haven, a building of four cement walls and a celling.
Study enough to survive the storms, and the battles outside of my doors.
What curtain? Where?
Do you mean my shower curtain,
Torn from the wall ages ago? Oops!
The reflection I see is not me.
the person I want to be, is someone that I can't be.
the things I say and do are different then what I want.
I'm a person, who is lost.
can someone find me?

Once a man that had to fight,
Spent all his life at a decent height,
He used his size to scare people away,
While his grandma had loved him every day,
In childhood I learned, as the books I loved would say, that if you're pretty and it's earned, someone will take you far away.
