Stone Walls

Can someone tell me why I want to cry?

Tell me why I want to die?

I know there is a reason in there somewhere,

I know something inside me is begging,

For something,

Something it knows it can never get,

Can someone tell me, how this feeling could end?

I want to know, was life supposed to be this way?

Was I supposed to come here for pain?

I have reached a dead end, so I cling to this wall.

I sit here holding my knees to my chest,

I take deep breaths,

I feel comfortable inside me and I hold on to it all,

Don’t move me, I’m comfortable now,

Don’t try to pull me back into the world,

This place is lonely,

But in these walls – I can trust,

These stone walls.
