Shield

My bare skin used to be exposed
To arrows and spears
That pierced me
That wounded me

You give me a shield
That walls me in
Like fire
Like a most vehement flame.

The arrows stop piercing
And my wounds begin to heal
And my heart begins to trust
Cause I know the arrows won't pierce me again.

But here and there
In moments of despair
The arrows pierce
And the pain returns
In waves
It churns
