Within These Walls

Within these walls The walls were too high Unable to break through I struggled and fought With determination Oh God how I tried I climbed so high You remained locked inside your walls Your past still haunting Scars still healing The pain you know Re-occurrence you fear The walls were too wide Bridges too weak Crumpling under the weight Suffocating Choking us with the debris I walked the universe in your shoes Understood your pain My heart desperate to comfort yours Relinquish your ghosts and your sorrow Bestow you with my soul Prove myself Free you from your castle walls The walls were too heavy Crushing my dreams into rocks They destroyed us Trampled our emotions Broken bridges No way across We got so far Just one last hurdle Too much and too soon We are rubble Just dust Cremated but still living Lost and alone I tried so hard But failed in the end I struggled and fought But I lost You remain locked Deep inside your walls A human tragedy Trapped by his own fears You are now past A memory in my heart One I will never forget My love will not waiver Patient until the end I will always be there If and when You are ready to let me in
