The Wall

The wall
Appears stiff and cold
To the hands
The wall
Appears blank and blind
To the eyes
The wall
Appears deaf and dumb
To the ears
The wall 
Appears protesting and imprisoning
To the minds
The wall
Appears strange, unattainable and grim
To the hearts 
But the wall 
Appears safe and reliable 
To the places we fall asleep
