Iron and Cement
Physical blocks
It's not like
An esay
Breeze
Stuck between
Unmovable
Mountains
Nothing willing
To bend
So it will break
Mental blocks
It's some kind
Of box
Four walls
And no door
To be found
Sounds don't
Break through
To anyone
But you
Emotional blocks
It's come to
Bent water pipes
Nothing drips out
Even when they're
Burstinig at molded
Seams
Because it's been years
In training
To feel nothing
Knowing the barriers
Just makes it harder
To get up in the morning
But what else
If anything else can
Break something
Stronger than iron and cement?
