my four walls
when the night falls
these four walls
become my prison..
the loneliness envelopes
suffocates
engulfs
the heart cringes
beats in silence
dup dap dup dap
the pulse quickens
and then lapse again
the mind wanders
to the labyrinth of emptiness
the realm of sadness
the four walls
of my prison
keeps me walled in
leaves me alone
solitary confinement
where is the warmth
where is the strength
of the heart of another
more powerful
than mortar and chalk
more radiant than a thousand burning suns
where is your heart
where is your love
your hands once reach out to me
held me close, protected me
and there was warmth
as the walls crumbled
a new dawn emerges
you held me tight
you whispered to me
its all okay
things are gonna be fine now
and now they seem just like a mirage
for without you
my four walls
become my prison once again
