The Wall

One more day older
another burden to shoulder
felling like an innocent soldier
not aware of the battle until its upon my door steps
 The net has grounded me
the battle can not be escaped
purity will save me
 My defense is my past
the only wall that was put up
may it hold
may it redeem me
so that I may be pure again
