The Wall

There is a wall in between them and I
Which I cannot yet break down
Causes the fires deep inside their souls have all but yet gone out
There’s grief and pain and disease that’s there
Which lies far beneath the skin
And the fear it causes does prevail
It prevails through out and prevails within
They have no idea how to kill this pain
The hurt and all it has done
Cause they have not been to that degree yet
That which soon will come
There is peace and light within Gods spirit
That really can prevail
Prevail to cure their minds and soul
So surely from their hell
So just hold and love the one you’re with  
Because love it does not fail
And the time, yes it has yet to come
But in time love will prevail
Now life will come, and life will go, but the spirit will live on
So one day you and the world will see
And know what is to come
