Wallowing in Friendship
Exposed is my perception from the start…
These arrows harbor angst against my heart.
They threaten my entire world apart.
Defenseless, I erect these shields in place.
Protection from this hurt I fear outside,
These castle walls stand mighty, tall, and tried.
My soul, within this tower, I encase.
I open up my gates to those who may.
These trebuchets are where companions stay.
