when people get you down

when people get you down

you won't rob me 
I have fitted locks
they are one way
the entrance in..
is under constant 
survaillance I'd say
I am nigh on impenetrable
like a safe house
I can't be picked
I am  a secret
no one will know
that I exist..here
in this personal space
I don't want to argue
then analyse a response
nor challenge
negotiate a continguency
I am just wanting me
as I am enough

I like you poem.
i often have and do feel that way. It’s better to know it and say it than to lie.
i have invited many and left them banging at my door, unsure of why I wouldn’t let them in.

Thanks John.   Retreat is a strategy like in Chess, these days I don't need to win   X
