And I looked through the telescope, only this time I was looking back at a girl I used to know. She is not with us anymore :-) for you see, she was an innocent girl. She was a bit sad, she was lost. She was . . . . . . . . . . and now, every so often bits of her float by. She was a kindred spirit :-) insightful too. But she had these huge walls built around her and would do just about anything to keep these walls up.
She is long gone, where she abounds I do not know. Sometimes I am happy she tore some of the walls down, sometimes I want her to pull the walls up again, reinforce them. Sometimes I wish she had never been. She was the product of circumstances, terrible circumstances. Her walls were all she knew to keep herself safe. I empathize with her, I feel her pain. She needs to get over the past to move forward, she's been hiding out instead of dealing with it.
So help me God for she has to come back out, without the walls this time. Without fear, without a care in the world, other than God's word. That is the only burden I would like for her to bear. She has borne enough.
