Please don't leave me.
Can't you see?
The words on the wall.

When I take the fall,
I reveal my true words in blood.
The words I spoke were lies.
I had to hide the pain.
I didn't want to reveal my broken heart.

I wrote words on the wall.
To let go of my deepest thoughts,
I fought a lot.

So never forget the words on the wall,
and remember why I told you to never leave.

(he seemed happier,
i swear,
when i wasn’t there)

and the wedge between our friendship
will never really leave
and the One Who Invited Himself
will tell his friends that i’m a *****
make a life lesson out of me
to his children
foolish boy

don’t you know your love is waiting for you
and that sometimes nothing can be said
or done
and that love can’t be forced
or, in a way that makes sense,
talked about ?

They ask why my eyes
stare blankly into space,
and why no emotions
blanket my face.

My walls reach higher,
my skin grows rough,
my smile turns dull.
My heart has had enough.

Silence fills conversations,
sadness glazes stares.
Fear fiercely pushes away
any person who cares.

I don't understand
why I feel this way.
For I tell them to leave,
yet I long that they stay.

Roses have layers
and they have thorns,
yet they are a symbol of love.

You can't make me.
I don't take orders.
I will if I want;
I won't if I don't.
I'm not an apprentice.
You're not the boss of me.
You can't make me.
So there!
I don't want you if you're easy.
I've been reading your body language. Flipping through the pages you narrated to illustrate in conversation, which reflects shallow thoughts.
I'm trying to connect with you intellectually.
Unfortunately, the connection between us just isn't deep enough to submerge into. I refuse to jump headfirst before checking the water.
So I'll take a seat because your depth is just knee-deep. Shallow depths are only six feet.
Rest in peace abbreviated on your obituary followed by insecurities are killing relationships.

As I reached toward the door of his heart,
He recoiled, afraid of being hurt.
But as each day went on, he emerged
From his deep and dark hole, casting aside the fear.
The chains and locks dissolved
And all the walls fell down.
There is freedom in true love.

The wind does things differently,
It patiently rubs off the sand castle's wall,
Slowly approaching it without intent to break.

Time was his friend,
He would give up his life time to enter the castle,
Showing only warmth as his effort to let her open up.

But the wave is different,
It would just come crashing on the walls,
Immediately breaking down the walls.

Time was never an issue,
He would do everything now while he can,
Shaking her world to show her the real world.

The beach knew how the wind loves the sand castle,
But the beach also know which one the sand castle will fall to,
I guess we all know how the wave will always win.

It may not be easy for everyone to get the one they want, especially when you've just dedicate your entire life for that one. It doesn't matter how many times or how long you have been holding your hands above her head from the rain, someone can easily come in with an umbrella and protect her entirely.

I've let my walls down
Only to have it resurrected because of you

I came here in hopes of a brighter future
Only to find so much darkness

I told you truths no one believed thinking you'd understand and accept
Rather than deny and pretend it was fake

I took your betrayal and hoped you would come to see the truth
But you stayed in denial, forcing me to join you along the way

I let you through my walls
Hoping you'd help me rebuild my surrendered soul but you left me even more broken

I can only rebuild my walls
Because I alone may never be able to fix what's inside these walls
