My Invisible Wall

A poem

I’ve hidden inside myself so long That I can’t find my way out. I’ve been so afraid that I can never measure up That I hide from anyone Who may hold the key to breaking Into me and my secrets, my sins.

The hurts I’ve given. The harm I’ve caused, Even intentionally at times. What will happen if I let someone Break down my wall, And see my real self? Will they stay? Can I trust?

Finally I knocked down The invisible wall myself. The key to breaking through All my fear was me. Who I was is not who I am. My soul rules now Ensuring who I will be.
