No Defence

by Walter   Oct 27, 2020


Like a balcony fence won't stop your fall
Or a car seatbelt when you hit a wall
A bullet proof vest you're still exposed
A soldier dying unopposed

Like a twisted parachute and tangled lines
Or walking again with a broken spine
Recovering from third degree burns
Or coming home passing point of no return

Although there are no visible signs
You've let me know that I've crossed the line
And a heart once broken is the highest cost
Because nothing hurts as much as when love is lost
