A poem based on fear of tearing down that wall.
They stand on the other side,
of this wall I have built.
I don’t know what lead them there,
maybe it’s guilt.
Regardless my heart pounds,
from the other side.
Wanting to tear it down,
choosing to hide.
To reach through, shows weakness,
a single crack, and it could break.
Reaching forward, pulling back.
Which choice should I make?
Each time I think of you,
that little girl comes back.
That one you tossed into,
a world so black.
To tear down this wall,
means letting you win.
Not sure I’m willing to lose,
to the two of you again.
