I built a wall one day <br />or maybe it was more like a cage <br />I may have put the bricks up alone <br />but you provided the mortar <br />All of you helped me <br /> <br />and now I’m not so <br />sure about this wall <br />it’s the fortress of my sanity <br />but it keeps me from you <br /> <br />We are like two monkeys <br />separated by our bars <br />trying to reach one another <br />metal grinding on metal <br />shooting out sparks but not starting a fire<br /><br />Abbi van den Berg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/monkeys-2/
