Angry Walls
How can I cross
the
angry walls
of
your garden
to
hold you
until it rains?
Carve me a portal
so
I can stream in
or
I shall love
you
through your
happened cracks.

"I am no barrier to its sun; the light and I are as one!"
My Poetic Notes:
The reason that I wrote this poem can be summed up with the following statement: I wrote this poem when I worked with troubled youth, which helped me to realize that I was really trying to heal myself by trying to heal the troubled youth! So, that is why I decided to go into therapy, since I needed to work through some major issues stemming from my truly dysfunctional childhood.
And this poem was also published on my "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer" blog (please see the hyperlink below for the blog), since I feel that the message in this poem applies to the message that I am trying to convey through "Paul Whiting — A Creative Writer."
This poem was written in Salt Lake City, Utah.
