Walls around my
Heart, to keep out the
Pain. Long have they stood,
Keeping me
Sane.
Nothing gets in,
Nothing gets out.no
Flaw exists. It will
Never come down.

I go on with my
Life, solaced by
Myself. This feeling can
Last, I will not
Resist. Who needs
Me? I don't need them.

Or do I?

A friend, thought
Lost returns offering
Kindness and comfort.
Can this be? Is there a
Flaw in my barrier? How
Easy it seemed to
Show itself. I cannot
Believe, it must not be
True.

This feeling won't leave, my
Mind is a whirl. Could I have been
Wrong all this time? Did I see their
Hatred, or was I blind? She comes
Again, I cannot
Believe it. She tells me I was
Silly. That I was wrong.

The wall crumbles.
