Walls of Humanity


I look around and see walls sky high

This is where humainty's fate lie

On the left a person instilled with fears

On the right a human still suffering their tears

Humans are layers of their past

Until they have this dreadful breath that is their last

Humans put up walls not to keep people out

But to see who cares enough to tear down their burdens in a bout

This pernicous cycle of loss and gain

Will forever mask an eternal pain

Once the deed has begun

The humans emotinal battle has won

Relationships can thrive

In its entirity these are the ambitions of which we strive

A prominent realtionship starts with sacrifice

Unconditonal love should not suffice

When we love as a whole

It will surley take its toll

On our hearts day by day

The memories deep within inevitably stay

When we love we give a pieace of our heart

Not at the end but at the start

Sometimes people give thier own puzzle pieaces that is their heart to eachother

Through that interaction we rely on another

Healthy Relationships is a give and take

Sometimes there will be mistakes

A scar on our inner soul

As we die a part of a whole

But only through pain can we learn to love in perfection

As the metaphorical wall depicts a small digression.
