Getting Past Myself.

There came a point where the seeds of pain became too much,
So i placed steel bars around my heart,
And installed two separate locks for security ,
One of indifference
And One of pride.
Now i am too afraid to unlock these gates for the fear of what these seeds have grown to be.
So i spend my time fighting back against the floodgates of my soul.
Careful never to feel too much,
Careful never to know myself too well for fear of discovering who truely i am.
For the fear that i am not the person
I pretend to be.
