I suppose there will always be some things people want to tell others, but never really found a way of expressing so that it is a true reflection of the inside.
Expression is scary. Its potential is scary... its potential to be such a disfigured, broken image of a well meaning, loving heart – is scary.
When we say something and really mean another, its scary. Especially when you belittle what you say -because you know you don't really mean it, and never notice how you're just pushing the knife deeper and deeper. Well you know you don't mean it, but the other person doesn’t.
And sometimes expression is marred by pride, ego, pain, defensiveness, and they crack the mirror so bad, you never really got to show your heart. Before you know it, things have reached such a level its difficult to even show anything.
And sometimes walls hinder expression. Walls build out of wounded love, and the more a person means to you, the harder it is to tear the walls. What if they don't like what they find inside? And so expression freezes, reflecting only the cold exterior of the outer walls, and inside you curl in lonliness. Who stays to look at facades? And so you never got to know the people that meant most to you.
Give it a few years, and it develops into a fear of intimacy, something that most adults have – it was shown on the tele.
Expression is scary, the cracked ones are scary.
And i don’t want a broken mirror, Father help me mend this.
because there is nothing i can do alone.
