veritical skyscraper becoming horizontal

it takes years to build a skyscraper
only minutes to make it fall to the ground
in our own lives we build walls up around us
brick by brick, beam by beam
to prevent anyone to see who we really are
when we do not know who and what we are ourselves
facades are thrown up to give a false prescence
some can see through it all, but not everyone
over time the bricks can start to fall from the top
in time all the beams, bricks and boards are gone
we are then left standing there naked to the world
revealing what has been hiding there within for so long
its is so hard and can be very frightening to be revealing
after so much time trying to cover our naked bodies
our soul can be tucked in so deeply
yet a smile makes it look like its all good
now that my own bricks are falling down
day by day, month by month, time keeps on ticking
one day my veritical skyscraper i built will become horizontal
then you can see me for who i am, really, behind the pain and fears
no more running, no more hiding, no more fears, i must jump the hurdles
fear can waste away at your soul and then it's years passed, still pained
face the fears, conquer your guilt, release the stress built up inside
to walk high and tall to show the world what God meant you to be in the end
