“Walls”
Walls represent protection.
We have a tendency to build
our own walls, an attempt to
protect ourselves against hurt.
Many of us live isolated lives
behind these self erected walls.
These walls become prisons,
trapping us in bitterness and loneliness
keeping out emotional pain,
unable to love or be loved.
For years we spend our lives
avoiding pain,
a pain deeper than living
freely and dealing with
issues that arise.
