The Walls We Build

The Walls We Build
Oh what walls you build, she smiled 
Stone faced fortified, 
Are all these illusions of security, 
Meant to keep me petrified? 
Safely at arms length,
All allure at bay, the distance sanctified?
And are you ? He asked, so petrified ?
You see that wisp of a smile? She asked,
Contained in the crinkle around my eyes,
And the sigh caught between my lips?
Those are my partners in enterprise,
We've weapons of our own, we don't scare easy,
No matter how great the illusion be,
We build bridges, across all moats thus fortified!!
