I wish this could be true.
That the one to break the wall,
is rite in front of me, it's you.
Now you ask, what wall is this?

The wall I built up,
in front of my heart.
So I wouldn't have the fear
of maybe getting hurt.

They flooded in,
tear after tear.
They haunted in,
fear after fear.

So I had to think
of what I was to do.
To have a wall built.
To let no one through.

Through to my heart
with emotions running strong.
This I could not have.
This I thought was wrong.

But then when I look,
I can see you may be different.
Did I ever push you back?
Sorry, it is not what I meant.

When I feel trust in your arms,
I want to hold you tight.
If I find the way to,
my wall may break down tonight.

It is not your fault, I know,
that I don't want anyone in.
But now all I ask is
Would you find a way in?

Are you willing to try?
You can do it, I swear.
The reason I know is because,
the feelings are there.

So take a step closer,
and hold me tonight
because of these feelings,
I never want to say goodnight.

Now I'm to question,
If I break this wall down,
Letting go of all fears,
Would you still be around??

"When I feel trust in your arms,
I want to hold you tight.
If I find the way to,

Wow thats really good... I love the ending its well written. The concept of the wall is one that a lot of writers use but not usually in that way, it was a good way to say it. Keep writing, good job!
