Stone By Stone

I have a wall you can not see because it's deep inside of me. It blocks my heart on every side and helps emotions there to hide. You can not reach in I can not reach out; you wonder what it's all about.
The wall I built that you can't see results of insecurity. Each time my tender heart was hurt, the seams within grew worse and worse. So stone by stone I built a wall that's now so thick it will not fall.
Please understand that it was not you, continue trying to break through. I want so much to show myself and love from you will really help. So bit by bit, chip the wall, till stone by stone it starts to fall.
I know the process will be slow. It's never easy to let go, of hurts and failures so long engraved upon ones heart, from years of pain. I'm so afraid to let you in because I know I might get hurt again.
I try so hard to break the wall but seem to get no where at all. For stone upon stone I've stacked and left between them not a crack. The only way to make it fall is an imperfection in the wall.
I did the best I could, to build the perfect wall, but there are still a few small flaws, which are the key to breaking through the wall to me. Please use each flaw to cause a crack to break the stone off the stack.
For just as stone by stone was laid, with ever hurt with ever pain. So stone by stone the wall will break, as love replaces ever ache.
Please be the one who cares enough, to find the flaws no matter what.
