The sun is inside me
Though I’ve built a wall around it
Each brick of cold, condensed fear
Prevents the warmth from reaching my awareness
As I search outward for something lost
Denying the wall is there
I snatch what warmth I can from strangers
Share their fire for a while
Believing I have none
The fires of strangers flame and die
Flame and die
I wander from one to the other
Gradually losing hope that what I seek
Will ever be found or defined by another
The only path left is on the inside
There is work to do
Remove the wall brick by brick
Tear by tear
And have faith
That the sun is inside me
