Walls between us. Walls around us.
Who built these walls that surround us?
I don't remember when they rose.
I asked around...nobody knows.

Did I speak so badly after all
that you stacked my words into a wall?
Or was I, perhaps, too quick to build
while leaving promises unfulfilled.

I remember when there was only space
all around us..room to race.
We held each other much of the time
for I was yours and you were mine.

Now, I can hardly see you at all.
Someone's busy building walls.
Walls between us. Walls around us.
How did we build these wall that surround us?
