Queen's Fallacy
I have locked myself away, behind walls
For love hurt me, and I cannot stand tall
In between the lies I have heard, and with
The stories I have read, it is no myth
That nobody cares about my stones built
It is not their job to penetrate guilt
And save me from myself, so why do care
If my hysteria affects them ne’er
So they do not care, and my walls strengthen
They leave me alone, and my walls lengthen
Until they encompass a heart’s city
But only one is inside, with pity
I break down and cry, weeping inside realm
Of where I was the queen, command at helm
Of a city of love, my crown is here
Used to mean power, but now is just a dear
Trinket of life passed, and just one weird thing
Remains, I still wait here for a new king.
I have locked myself away, behind walls
For love hurt me, and I cannot stand tall
