 ACCEPTANCE
There are so many layers and somewhere you will find the real me hidden in the center. What will you find ? My walls have been added one by one thru' the scarring years. Built up oh so carefully to protect me from the world, and from the eyes of any who might wander by mistake into my life. You came unbidden. Treading lightly into my space. I liked what I saw deep in your eyes, and what I heard in echo of my silent cry sounding thru' your words. And oh, because I could not see you clearly thru' my walls - they had to fall. What did you find when you reached me ? I only know that when you took me you also took my walls, ignoring all the dirt and dust from crumbling bricks - accepting all that lay exposed behind. And now it really doesn't matter what you found - because the walls are down, and I reached you.
