THE WALL

Twas the night before nothing

and all through my heart

every moment was stirring

both here and apart.

The warmth of your presence

was clinging inside

but the cold of your shoulder

was hurting the pride.

But all of the sudden

I felt something above

the coldness was jerked

all I felt was your love.

I heard someone laugh

which forced me awake

the thin shell of hatred

was starting to break.

I built up a wall

to save me from you

when I was hurting

it's all I could do.

The wall is now falling

but why, I don't know

the hatred inside

was just starting to show.

Something stepped in

and knocked down my wall

my thin shell of hatred

now nothing at all.
