Hiding away

Call it what you want.
I'm not in to win.
All I need is the peace.

You seem to wonder
why I'm so distant.
Truth is, I'm afraid.

Never before has someone
treated me this way.
I feel like a queen surrounded by roses.

So here you are.
On your knees begging please,
please just come be with me.

But the past pulls me back,
afraid to loose my precious memories.
The ones where life seemed fair.

You ask again why life is this way.
But as I place the brick wall up,
you pushed it down just for me.

I realize now your calling the shots.
Your in to win.
The prize being me*
