you've begun pulling away without hesitation,
and so i lay down a new foundation.

every day spent in lament,
is a day spent pouring cement.

as tensions quickly become thick,
i create space by adding more bricks.

and when your ways just don't make sense,
the only solution is a barb-wired fence.

i wonder if i'll forever be alone,
as walls grow higher, stone by stone.

if you find yourself dying to get through,
i'll be watching from my inside view.

it won't be easy because the hurt is real
a resistant fire wall is my seal.

temporary or permanent i cannot say,
but this is where i'll wait and stay.

know that i must do what is best for me,
building walls that separate what used to be.
