Stone Wall

Light fades nothing is in my sight
I am a black wall standing alone
Trying to balance myself
With no one to lean on
I’m too dizzy leaning back and forth
Finding my own balance
Too much effort
Cracks began to show
A lone wall trying to find its balance
Suddenly stopped moving
I am letting myself fall
I am letting myself break into pieces
Then you came
Another black lone wall
You stood beside me
And did not let me fall
Two lone walls looking for the right balance
Stood on each other’s side
Not letting each other fall
Time passes we are standing firm
Our cracks were fixed
And balanced was kept
Who could break us?
If we help each other to stand
Who could separate us?
If we fixed each other’s cracks
Two lone walls were once lost
But now found on each other’s company
A dark space slowly lightens up
I saw the other wall change its color
I’m black, you’re white
But who cares?
It didn’t matter
As I saw the real you
And I appreciate you even more
But nothing stays forever
Only change is constant
Distance grew bigger
Balance was lost again
Cracks began to grew
But not to you
I saw you once more
Fixed and perfect
Cracks were covered by my loved
And enjoyed by someone you love
You came close to me once more
Distance was big
But I didn’t mind
Can’t you see I’m cracked again?
I need you beside me
Please fix me again
Just like what you did before
For one last time I took risk
I saw the space between us
But I lean unto you
Hoping you’ll still be there
But as I lean forward
You move forward
Walking toward your new wall
I fell on the ground
Lost my balance
And now completely broken
I am torn into thousand pieces
A wall that is expected to always be strong
Can be broken too
They need someone to support them
And fill the cracks that they contain
I am once fixed
But now crushed
By the same wall that fixed me
I fixed you,
You fixed me
I stood beside you
But you left me
Are you blind?
Or just ignoring me?
Maybe this is just a reality
A reminder to a broken wall
Not because they fixed you once
They won’t break you
Sometimes, those who fixed you
Will break you even more
