If
by Brian
If the walls
came down between us
and we saw one another If
we
Amer
clearly
acted as ourselves,
boldly venturing from our protective shells,
our iron fences
If
we
stopped playing games
of power, control, independence
and examined each other unmasked, abandoning assumptions
If
we spoke
not voicing
mere
truthfully,
common
platitudes,
pleasantries,
but with out heart's conviction
If
we
shared one
moment openly,
honestly,
courageously,
and the facade
fell
Could we look each other
in the
55
eye?
