WALLS AND ME

3 2 0
                                    

The walls are closing in
Looming over me
As I breathe unsteadily
The walls and me
When it hits me
Ahh I'm alone
And no one to speak to
So many contacts
Such good friends
A brother
A mother
A father
Everything
All so still and fleeting
Yet no one understands
No one hears
While I'm in here
The door locked
The shades drawn
Walls sturdy reliable soundproofed
So safe
So lonely
So tired
No one hears
Everything
Shatters me inside
I want to shout
I want to scream
And I want
I want someone to hear it all
But why why o why
Why do I shut myself in
Why am I afraid
I have you my friend
I have you brother
I have you mother
I have you father
Yet I can't say
Say a single thing to you
When it's pounding me inside
Waging wars in my head
Tearing Me up
Shredding my emotions
Tears rolling down
For what
Why why are you falling
Falling when no one can see you
Is that why I crave love
A stranger
Is that why I want to bind myself
To a stranger
In the name of love
Because I am afraid
Afraid of the world
Afraid of you all
Afraid of facing it all alone
So I search for a stranger
Because I can't trust myself
Because I believe none of you will be here
Here like now
When I am alone with the walls
I do this to myself
Wanting to stop this all
But I don't
Instead I stay locked inside
Killing myself slowly

Stop stop stop
Break it
Break the wall
Open the door
Don't hope for forever
Live the moment right now
The moment that's infront of you
Stop killing yourself over a future that's in the making
Speak now.
Live now.

Stop falling tears.
Stop.
And Don't make me fall with you.
