26/M/South Just a grown man with a problem of growing up. The past continues to haunt and interest me. Blaming everything on anything else.
What is this wall? And where did it come from? Why is blocking my brain and not letting my mouth speak? I'll tear it down I will destroy it Then my mouth will tell you how you make me weak Oh I see your wall is up too I can see by the things you don't say Every question I ask And every question you ignore Is another brick for your foundation I can see your wall is actually a mask I'll cover my face with a mask as well I will let it hide every single smile that you accidentally evoke This mask works wonders, can you tell? I've been smiling since you've been here Looking closer i think your mask might be broke. You're mask isn’t hiding your eyes Your eyes are all I need to see Now i'm lost again staring at your face It’s hypnotizing I’m hypnotized   Oh wait you're mask just turned into space. Giving space is easy I can do that with no problem I'll take a thousand steps backwards With all this space why isn't there anywhere to hide? **** no barriers, I can still see you Even as a shadow you're still beautiful Your space is working perfect, your space is a million miles wide I can see your shadowy silhouette Your hair dancing around your body I need my hands on you, I need to make this walk I'll take a thousand steps closer Close enough to touch There isn't any more space but now there is this lock Fine, here is my lock I won't let you in if I can't And nothing can be opened without a key A key I guess you never had A key you never asked for maybe this is will be better for me? Your lock is massive Strong and durable And there is gum in the keyhole Why am I trying to break through, if you don't want me to No more lock, just a wall with a peephole A wall with a hole What good is this for? I guess it’s nice to be able to see you Hopefully i'll be able to catch your eye sometime? Can you feel me always watching? I realize i need something new Your peephole is always empty There is never an eye looking back at me Why would there be? All these moments give me hope Why does hope do this? Why is hope is killing me? I will cover this hole in my wall I know i created this wall for me This wall will keep my brain from letting my heart speak I'll leave it up I’ll cherish it Then my mouth will never tell you how you make me weak

The Wall
What is this wall? And where did it come from? Why is blocking my brain and not letting my mouth speak?

Not pleased with this degenerate that stares back at me Morals twisted like the springs where he just laied Where the ****** thoughts each night breed It’s innocent and it's playful and nothing is real Repeating the words like a feeble mantra Disgusted with the way she makes him feel When did the this transformation occur? Being this compassionate guy with his heart on his sleeve To becoming this typical man obsessed with her Young and beautiful she is everything you're not You know this and you don't mind this Bringing life into my heart that you left to rot This gray in my beard should be the reason to quit It’s been a Finch's life since you let love die Covering up depressing thoughts with humorless dry whit Now this new Venus who doesn't even know her place She's the star of the dreams against her will   She's the reason his ethics disappeared without a trace Each morning getting lost in in the fantasies that reality misread Subconsciously forgets your existence while we play make believe Drinking imaginary coffee with this juvenile ghost in bed Waking up gets harder for a man with no self respect But having a reason to be up is so new and exciting Planning each step and hoping our paths connect Pure and innocent is she Real and scary you are Atrocious and broken is me This needs to end i know Creating fictitious worlds Of something that should never be
