I put walls up made of cinder blocks Each one a lie uttered by a former love There was a gate, covered in keyless locks But soon even that was a weakness to the doves So I build another line, cement and glued together thoughts and painful sensations It was an ugly wall, but all the better to keep things away Each time someone chipped a peice away I would it was replaced without hesitation "May I come in?" You call, "Maybe another day"

Under Construction
I put walls up made of cinder blocks Each one a lie uttered by a former love There was a gate, covered in keyless locks But soon even that was a weakness to the doves So I build another line, cement and glued together thoughts and painful sensations It was an ugly wall, but all the better to keep things away Each time someone chipped a peice away I would it was replaced without hesitation "May I come in?" You call, "Maybe another day"
