Mending Fences

My guarded self has erected fences
To protect the inner me.
But there are times when fences get broken,
When who I am is plain to see.
Broken fences are all too common
As we display our inner souls.
The barriers are built for a reason,
To mask our pain and hide our woes.
When the hurt becomes too great,
The fences cannot contain it
Our agony seeks to find relief,
But the fences exist to restrain it.
Finding an outlet and breaking free,
The painful cries seem unending,
But since the pain’s been released
The fences now need mending.
