A composed demeanor with guarded walls that are as tall as the one in Berlin; secured and strong. Despite, the steel built exterior; that was a front. A slight crack was forming a tiny hole, that was exposing light in a dark place. In the midst of all the chaos beneath the surface, little by little the wall no one could seem to climb over;was crashing down one brick at a time. It only took for one brave soul to take the leap, to extended a kind hand, share a joke or two, conversations on several occasions; to bring the hider to the seeker. Like a onion, layers on top of layers was being pulled back to get to the source of the turmoil. Soon enough the dark place turned bright, to the blind eye everything was transparent. The cards were placed neatly on the table, no topic was untouched. There was no more saying one thing and meaning another, hiding ducking for cover. The lines of communication was flowing. And at last the seeker made it to the other side safe, and now the other is found; as so visible. It seem that the object in the mirror was closer than it appeared all long.
