Invisible Wall
These hands of mine tell a sad but heartwarming story
These eyes of mine have lines to signify years of a unique journey
This heart of mine is only cold because its security blanket is tattered
This mind of mine likes to roam and fantasize about what could be
This sinner inside of me still has private conversations with God
This life of mine is full of broken promises yet still I envision my dreams
This time I live is still borrowed but each night I wish for another day
This self doubt of mine does more harm to me than good
Could it be some of my heartbreak is caused by not doing something I should?
These blessings of mine are not directed by my own actions and sight
These fears of mine may not be worth the self confidence sacrifice
This wall I see is not really there
So I often hold the weight of a cross I don't have to bear
I can climb and reach for the top because the barrier I once saw is actually not really there
