A Wall

A wall
Brick by brick, you and I
put each one in place
In the process
Still catching a glimpse
of each other.

Piece by piece, you and I
create a barrier
the words we don't say
form the blocks in our hands
our conversation masterpiece
is the wall in between.

Block by block, you and I
put them on top of each other
Unspoken feelings made it stronger
And I myself
glue them with tears.

Between us, a wall
that will be stronger
as we walk away from each other.
