The Walls Around Emotions

Why is it that feeling are something that people try to hide It’s not because of humility and I don’t think it’s because of pride It’s a thing called fear which drives us all to build these walls around us Almost the same fear that keeps you to yourself and makes it hard for you to trust The fear of rejection is the most common of fear and that’s where the foundation begins That’s a battle that’s difficult to fight and most of the time fear wins So you have the foundation now what comes next to help complete these walls The next fear is not as common but from the past is where it calls Most people have had bad experience and it dictates decisions they make Scared to express there feelings because they have had so much pain and ache The feelings of emotional agony and distress can be far worst then physical pains Constant heartache and indescribable anguish which is why this fear can reign You will spare your pain by keeping to yourself this is indeed is your notion And that is why you are simply left with walls around your emotions
