I ran head first
into the wall
started bashing my head against it
screaming for it to let me by
But it stood
Hard and strong
almost taunting
me
daring me to surpass its strength
How can I?
I sat down, looking at the wall
it was so big, so high
there was no way I could get around it
I should just give up,
I think - accept the wall,
the block it provides
it's probably there for my best interest, right?
Maybe I can't handle what's on the other side
things are familiar over here
I know what to expect
even if it isn't making me happy
I have a choice here
stay behind the coldness of the wall
stay behind the hardness
stay behind the path that lay ahead
I have to find a way - let me think
I may have built it, it may take one brick at a
time
but this wall is coming down
with my own bare hands
Wait, is that sunlight I see?
I feel warmth on my skin
The wall, so cold, holds me in no longer
I am finally free
