To break down that wall,
Even to remove a stone.
Wanting to once again feel.
After the neglect,
Life with no feelings,
Non deserved guilt embedded.
Wanting the touch.
Even fleeting if true.
Of love and respect.
Tenderness,
The little joys of life.
Whispers in ones ear.
The soft feeling of lips
Just to bring a smile.
Oh, to trust again.
To totally bread down that wall.
Once again, to live.
