There is no wall that separates us.

Not even the one that someone built with their bare hands and mind mud made wet with tears to isolate.

Not the one erected out of anger, made of steel, locks and a moat dug around, rushed, half-assed and whole-pissed.

Not the one someone hung up with a sheet and laundry line, just for a moment of peace- the one they let the sun still shines through.

& not the one someone built so proudly, with all good intention to keep their loved ones safe at home.

There is no wall that separates us.

I love you.

I like the idea of having the corgi butt/hind legs/tail, but every else is moi. Perhaps Iā€™ll throw in the corgi ears too to balance it out
