Slowly it creeps in
silently surrounding you
as those around you sleep
your mind wanders again
to the cobwebbed corners
of your own vicious mind
The doubts grab hold
as fear bears its claws
The tears flow
as freely as the river
lost to yourself
the love you seek
feels as though
it's just out of reach
Do you continue the fight
with all the blood spilt
can you rise up again
with your spirit crushed
your will left in pieces
the walls built to stop
now crumbled heaps
you feel your heart beat
despite the pain that wells within
you will not be over took
you will not give in
two feet planned firmly
as the river dries up
walls rebuilt
stronger than ever
never too be whole again
for some pieces
just won't fit
