I have a wall you cannot see because it is deep inside of me. it blocks my heart on every side and it helps emotion there to hide. you can't reach out. you wonder what it is all about. the wall you can't see results from insecurity. each time my tinder heart was hurt the scars within grew worse and worse. so stone by stone i built a wall that's now so thick it will not fall. please understand that it is not you, continue trying to break though. i want so much to show myself, and love from you will really help. so bit by bit chip at my wall, till stone by stone it starts to fall. i know the process will be slow, it's never easy to let go of hurt and failures long ingrained upon one's heart from years of pain. i am so afraid to let you in. i know i might get hurt again. i try so hard to break the wall, but seem to get nowhere at all. for stone upon stone i stacked, and left between them not a crack. the only way to make it fall, are imperfection in the wall. i did the best i could to build a perfect wall, but there are still a few small flaws, which are the key to breaking through the wall, please use each flaw to cause a crack, to knock a stone off of the stack. for just a stone by stone was laid with each hurt, with every pain, so stone by stone the wall will break, as love replaces every ache. please be the one who cares enough to find the flaws, no matter what......
