Void
Who laid these bricks between us?
that pile higher than our grief
The concrete is rock
who laid these cement sidewalks
that I cross to find
to find a different aspect
our temperance is correct
You fill this void
this void from within
the equilibrium is in balance
because of your appearance
because of your correctness
because of your purity
You correct my mistaken
The indifference is slim
what we posses is a rusted lock
a rusted lock that has been forever
that has with stood corruptions
weather
fire
eroding
You are the metal
for I am the combination to that lock.
hold me till I undo my code
wait for me
wait for me to give in to your dignity
You make each individual tooth shine
From the light that reflects off your character.
