Muse Deconstruction

I CHISEL AND HAMMER ON THIS WALL OF BRICKS POUND AND PUMMEL JUST TO GET TO YOU WHEN THE BRICK HAS CRUMBLED I FIND A WALL OF GLASS THAT SURROUNDS YOU LIKE A CAGE I CAN SEE IN BUT YOU CAN'T SEE OUT SILENCED BY FRUSTRATION I SIT AND CONTEMPLATE YOU IN YOUR SHELL I FIND TIME HAS LOST ITS MEANING I CAN STARE FOREVER INTO YOUR ABYSS.

Reminds me a lot of poetry I wrote when I was younger. I especially like the last two lines as they really made me FEEL when I read them. Overall, the theme and imagery is quite nice. Very unique overall as a poem. A nice read that can make me relate to your frustration and be fascinated by the last few lines.

Thank you, friend. This is pretty old actually. I'm working on some newer ones. So glad you like it.
