Walking down memory lane ... one of the chatguys who was too snooty ... he might have the right to do so, so no big deal. Where could he be now? NASIR'S WALL There is a wall
between you and me
built with the bricks of closure.
for now
i cannot chip the wall away
to open the flow of thoughts
without your full consent.
i may walk on thin lines
expose my vulnerability
get hurt by attempts at rejection
i won't be afraid
if in this manner i could cross
the bridge of friendship
to reach you
i will still dare.
you are free to be you --
distant, snooty, whatever perception
i may have about you
it really doesn't matter
'cause every chance i get
to fathom the eyes of disguise
i see no harshness
i only see a reflection of a soft, gentle soul.
probably, when the guards are down
when the self is opened and shared freely
with a stranger
it would bare the real, caring person
that is YOU.
