My World

The bubble with which we surround ourselves
Our own world
It is invisible to all
It is not made of physical materials
But it is impenetrable
And it is the only protection I have
It cannot be broken, no one can get inside
Unless I allow it

It has happened before,
Someone has been allowed through the gates
and they brought with them all the destruction
they could find.

There is a reason that the walls are up
I'm not just aloof, I am terrified
I don't have that much more to lose

Until I can rebuild my world inside
I cannot risk another entering

I will not let my guard down.
