    A Wall Around My Heart
    When I looked into your eye’s
    Never did I see
    That you wouldn’t be there
    In the end with me
    I only saw us laughing
    Walking hand in hand
    Growing old together
    Running barefoot in the sand
    I built my world around you
    Like a fortress made of stone
    It doesn’t really matter now
    Because I live there all alone
    I’ll be tearing down this fort
    Then seeking a new start
    So as each of those stones come down
    I’ll build a wall around my heart

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
