The Wall

Rome wasn't built in a day

As neither was the wall.

Brick by brick, stone by stone

All alone. I had to moan.

Like still concrete

Strong and grey

On the inside

Breaking away

And the bricks were blue

But painted orange

Underlying they turned to green

and softly faded to black...

The bricks became black

and slowly broke apart

Cascaded quickly

From light to dark

And it was no use mending it

As it was beyong repair

It was so frustrating

To see my wall of despair.
