Broken Walls

It’s true. When you’re not looking, or even caring, things happen.

It’s hard to let down your guard. The wall you build around you was meant to protect you. After so much pain and heartbreak, it completely surrounds you and seems to be impenetrable. The problem with your wall is that it does its job too well. Yes, your broken heart won’t be cracked again, but neither will it he healed. The wall that you so desperately use to stay safe won’t allow anything through - even the good that might still be out there.

Little pebbles hitting your window, bouncing off and landing around your yard. You need a boulder to break through. Patience and true caring, not giving up so easily and understanding why you built your wall. That’s what breaks through. Yes, the possibility of hurt is still there, but so is the possibility that you’ll never need to build your wall again.
