Building Rom Vol.127

Drop your weapon

I get it, drop your armor, 

love will follow,

I thought I did 

..

But today, I found a truth so deep,

I built these walls, while I was asleep.

It’s not just walls, but pride I wear,

A fortress forged in silent despair.

It’s not just pride, but ego, I fear 

A mask I hid behind here.

It’s not just ego, but shame I hold,

In shadows quiet, in stories I never spoke.

It’s not just shame, but abandonment’s cold,

A hollow echo of goodbyes, feeling sold.

But It’s not just that, it’s the unknown,

A place I wandered, all alone.

But so you say love is always near?

Waiting for the walls to disappear?
