The Wall

I'm writing this all now
line after line
hoping something meaningful
will come to mind
All these words i tell you
day after day
mean nothing
compared to what i want to say
sometimes this barrier between us
seems unbreakable
and i cant explain in words
how much i need you to hold
me
i feel like there's a wall
separating us
a wall to high to climb
blocking out the sun
being able to feel your love
seep between the cracks
feeling just enough
to never want to go back
day after day
night after night
i lean against that wall
with just enough to fight
knowing that our love
someday will make it through
and the wall will turn to dust
leaving me and you
i can still hear your voice
making my heart race
and every time i fall asleep
I'm dreaming of your face
sometimes i don't sleep at all
staring into the absence of light
feeling tears run down my cheeks
something isn't right
maybe someone out there
needs to test our love
seeing how strong it is
isn't just enough
maybe they even know
what's gonna happen next
planning everything
a map of our footsteps
I'll be here waiting
day after day
i would wait forever
just to be able to say..
staring deep into your eyes
with everything we knew
kissing you softly on your lips
and saying "i love you"
