Paper Shields

Writer's picture: Kayla HenryKayla Henry

Why do you run

From difficult questions?

Is it a lack of answers-

A defense mechanism?

Do you fear uncovering

Illogic in your ways?

Are you shaken by change

In your stagnant haze?

How will you know

Without a desire to find

And your paper shield

That you cower behind?
