I Build Walls ====In the poem, "I Build Walls", it describes walls that mean something. Their not physical walls that you see in your everyday life, there more than that. I your head are imaginary walls that hide your emotion and actions. This poem says, Walls that protect, Walls that shield." It basically means that you mind hides your real emotions and show a fake emotion.====

Others that I know build walls inside their minds. For example, my sister was hiding her emotions when our bunnies died. But once she told me, she wasn't building anymore walls in her head. Most walls come from anger or hatred, but walls that my sister formed were from a loss of something. I know this because this happens to me a ot. Sometimes it happens when someone else is hurt or sad over something that occured.

A lot of the characters in the novel "The Outsiders" built many walls. Towards the end of the book, Soda lays on the couch and smokes a cigarette, and pony knows hime pretty well like a brother should. Ponyboy says in his mind, Soda never smokes, only of he is upset about something or he is just trying to act cool.

My opinion about walls is that we should continue hiding our feelings and only share them with someone you know. A wall acts like a barrier to prevent someone form getting inside of you and telling them what you are sad or angry about. If a thought is really bad, you should either share it with a parent or a guidance counselor.
