WALLS

The walls surround me

To high to see

To tall to jump

Can you lift me up?



The wall is thick My heart grows weary

I give it a kick My eyes are teary

Damn it's brick! The strength in my limbs

Slowly dims.

I see a shadow…



Who is it now?

Are you friend or foe?

A calming voice,

An offered hand

A Drop

Of blood –



I see it land

And the wall

becomes a set of stairs

I grasp the hand.

It's always there

Steady, ready, and loving

Gently guiding and reminding

He gave it all for me
