Walls (Free verse) by razorgrin
Outside, the wind blows cold, whipping faces and making knuckles ache.
The dark is hanging like a heavy blanket over our town.
Wolves run out there among the trees, houses and buildings
seeking prey among those roaming between glittering frozen
branches.
The only barrier between me and the wind and wolves are walls.
Walls, just a few inches of wood, glass and paint.
The inside walls of my room are the colou of heartblood
and so I lay in my warm bed, sleeping soundly.
Behind my thin walls, the wind howls.
