The Wall Poem by Miss Tee

There's a wall,
a barrier that you cannot cross.
I try to take it down,
and show you what's inside
but this wall remains intact.

I smile and laugh all the time,
but you know..
you know I cannot speak
of those things that hurt me inside.

I don't know why..
There's a wall that's inside,
and as much as I dislike
it's a habit that confines...

There's a wall...
It prevents me from showing you
that I am afraid to let you in...
Scared you'll break my heart and leave..
So I'm sorry
That this wall is here
preventing you from knowing all of me
the way we both wish you could...

There's a wall
around my heart and at times my mind..
I'm sorry is all I got to say...
