Over the years, you've built a wall,
brick by stone, big and small.
In the past you've raised your fence,
post and rail to war against.
Childhood lessons, you were taught,

We can't touch you; you're so sure its true,
no way for the pain hidden to slip into view.
But think of the path you've been carefully avoiding……
Remember the keys to your life open each new morning……
