You’re forging defences against a fly
who is harmlessly trying to befriend you,
and the only damage done is made by
the very fences which defend you.
Why do you build these thick walls of steel
whenever someone reaches your border?
Are you afraid that you might start to feel
an attachment you feel out of order?
This concrete will only hold for so long,
deep down in the earth your foundations are weak
and as much as you make your fortress strong
someone with compassion might expose the leak.
There’s no enemy, so discard your shield
and instead take someone’s hand you wont yield.
