a wall was built with pain and fears.
Brick by brick it was laid
on solid ground where it stayed.
I tried to listen as you spoke to me
words of wisdom and prophecy.
Yet, I could not hear through the wall
built with strength as not to fall.
Then one day from the sky
I thought I heard an angel cry.
Weeping softly teardrops fell
gathered from life's wishing well.
Two more angels joined her side
and hand in hand all three cried.
Thunder bellowed, rain did fall
tearing down my sturdy wall.
Yet, through the fog I found my way
so brick by brick I build today.

This Brick Wall

Most of us has that brick wall that was built with our pain and fears. And this is not always bad, although it sometimes keeps us from reaching ouir full potential.
We know that we need to tear this wall down, but it's hard on your own. We sometimes need the help of those angels to make the process less traumatic. And, although it may not seem so at first, it always works out in the end!

Thanks for sharing this lovely piece.
Ash~
