Why wont my wall stand tall?
The bricks keep crumbling down
And crashing everywhere around me.
This is the first time
That when I've tried to build a wall
Between someone else and me
That it isn't working and just keeps tumbling down.
It scares me to death
That I can't do this.
That I can't stop myself from attaching to you
In that kind of way.
I want it to stop
I want this to just all go away,
But for some reason
The pieces wont stay.
The stone to separate us two
Wont stick together.
I stack them upon each other,
But it just falls back down.
Your last breath breathed,
The very last time you exhaled
Was taken away.
Stolen from you.
I wish I could give them all back.
To have all of them breath one more.
Long lives that could have lived,
But instead they were killed.
Murdered, stripped away of your lives.
What could have been
Is gone forever
And I'll never see you again.
Two months before you were robbed
You told me that I would see you soon,
But I didn't expect it to be while you were asleep
And never expected to awaken.
Cautiously she crosses his path,
Making sure not to look him in the eyes.
He makes her weak,
Breaks her apart
With just a smile.
She can't though,
She wont allow herself to.
There is no way that she'll
Fall in love with him
Even though she's already started to.
When they talk,
Her heart beats fast.
When he enters the room,
Her stomach starts to flutter.
But every time he comes around,
Evey time they hang out,
She gets this fear
That she is going to lose him forever.
That he'll never want to see her face
Or be in the presence of her body.
She fears
That one day
He'll let her fall and break
And wont even bother
To help pick up the pieces.
It's so hard to hold on,
When you really just want to let go.
When it feels useless to try and stay strong
Because everything starts to seem unbearable.
It would be a relife
To just escape
And to be free.
But instead I hide behind a mask.
I lie to everyone I pass.
Everyone that I see and sees me,
Everyone that I love and care about.
What would happen if I let go,
If I loosened my grip?
People everywhere
Say they're here to help.
But it's hard to ask for help
When I'm scared to ask for help.
When I'm afraid to let people know
What's going on inside my head
But instead of asking for help,
I just try to hold on
As tight as I can.
