After all this time,
my love for you burns constant and true,
my guiding light, my morning star.
I close my eyes and feel
again every memory we've made.
Everything in that room reminds me of you.
I'm a prisoner of love, in this unguarded cell,
And I wonder, for how much longer
will I feel this pain in my chest.
With Joy as my bars and happiness
I pass the time a whittling hearts
and sharpening this rap.
See those chalk lines on the wall of my heart?
They record the memories of my days
since the start, his smiles are more prized
than the art. For how much longer
will I see your cold eyes whenever
I close mine. The walls don't even speak to me
no more the silence, the only sound is my own breath
I was supposed to be your punishment.
But in the end, I became your prisoner.
Tell me there has been someone else like me, for you.
That your experience of love has not been defined by
the way I spoke your name into the hollow of your neck
As you whispered to me, love is the only thing that time cannot touch.
