A wall of nothing
Stole my words
Broke me down
I couldn't see
I couldn't stand
I lost what I wanted to say
The muses simply fled into another direction
Yearning to remember
What it was like to inspire
What it was like to remember
The first time I learned how
The first time I learned how to survive
On my own without her hand to hold
The first time I learned about people
And their deceitful manipulations
And all those times that followed
I'm trying to get a handle on the words I need to say
I'm trying to get some inspiration to show this a different way
But there's no words for me to use
Against this wall of nothing
It's invisible but clearly there
With a blotted out phrase
That ruptures my heart
What did it say?
Who had written it?
It was something I needed to remember
But buried it with my past
He didn't want me to know
What was it?
What did show?
I've taken a step back
Maybe more than a few
But I'm going forward at the same time
Missing something that I left behind
I lost a piece myself somewhere along the way
And He won't let me remember
A wall of nothing
Stole my words
Broke me down
I couldn't see
I couldn't stand
I lost what I wanted to say
