Four Walls
Inside this room
my soul cries out
swallowing up the silence
Pain weighs within my bones
becoming bricks
preventing me from moving
The ceiling fan spins around
all alone, chasing its tail
searching for what it lost
These four walls know
but secrets they keep
tears they hide
as a friend, you confide
Until my wounds heal
keep my secrets
hide my tears
