Prison Walls
From my self made
Prison walls
I look outside
And see the sun
The ocean breeze
Reaches me
I see the seagulls
Flying free
These hard and cold
Stone cell walls
Close around me
Cut my thoughts
This debilitating
Fear a feel
It's like a prison
Halting my dreams
I wanna fly
High in the sky
Like those seagulls
Without a fright
To reach beyond
This self made walls
To expand and become
More than my thoughts
I'll take a leap
Based on faith
I'll break those chains
And fly away
