She has a real talent
for pushing her feelings aside,
She is truly skilled
in hiding her pain,
putting on a smile,
letting her raw emotions subside.
She mastered this technique
when she was a just a little child -
so innocent, so naive, so small,
Her happiness always depended
on seeing others smile -
hence, she laid down bricks
and built a tall,
unbreakable,
load bearing wall.
Regardless of its rapid rising,
this wall still stands tall
till this very blessed day,
Each brick a touchy
raw emotion -
each one a traumatic problem
that was unresolved...
she only ever, just barely,
forced them to fade away.
She hides all of the darkness
within the mortar
that bonds these bricks,
She keeps it all buried
within this wall,
which is so very high -
this is one of her famous tricks!
She Prays that this wall
will withstand more weight -
hold steady and stay strong,
If it ever were to collapse
and come tumbling down,
then God help anyone
who leaned upon it!
God help anyone
who did her wrong!
God help anyone
who contributed to it reaching
so far up into the sky!
And God help her...
There are more than enough bricks
in this wall to build
a city greater than any other on earth
~ just the thought of that
makes her want to cry!
