there springs up a wall |

Unfairness doesn’t ask it just imposes itself at any opportunity given. Tolerance rages against injustice but silence is a requisite for the weaker and so there springs up a wall; behind it the wronged seek safety. Cementing its survival the newly created fortification reassures safety and feigns itself a trustworthy ally. But need cracks barriers even when they have want of remaining and together with the broken remnants carefully stockpiled to hurl in retaliation; a defense launched in self-preservation now readies itself as ammunition. |

Amazing, how even something as solid as a brick wall can be overcome. Sending hugs, always... |

Sweetie~ You dig deep ... and so effectively~ 'But need cracks barriers even when they have want of remaining' This thought seeped through the cracks and caught me in tender recall~ *HUGLETS* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |
