The Wall

 I am climbing on the wall
Hoping, praying I won’t fall
Facing west into my past
Wondering where it went so fast
It’s been a long road to here
I saw the picture crystal clear
But as I ran fast towards it all
I was halted by the wall

I am sitting on the fence
Of chain linked lesions in suspense
Future untold to the east
Of pictures yet to be release
I see the long road to ahead
And though I meant every word I said
While I hold onto my laments
I’ll chase my dreams from behind the fence

Sundown
Darkness caresses the skies
And oh the sound
Of stars resound in my eye
As I’m raised above the ground
My only question here is why?
Have I the will to break walls down
Or will this life just pass me by?

I am writing on the wall
Knowing well why I still stall
And as I wait for suns to rise
I silently say my goodbyes
I see the long road behind
I see the long road to come
And if I am to rise with the tides
I must come down
I must go on
I must look up
Embrace the dawn
Enjoy this life
And always remember to hum
Hmmmmmm
