Paper Walls

• Artist: Akari Moon
• Description: This one is the second to most recent poems I have made. I have surely made a new one that never got finished so that remains in the vault or book as it is. As for this one I sort of heard of a song with the word paper in it and somehow thought hey that would make a great band paper dolls. Then somehow I just changed this to read paper walls seeing as though the name sort of trailed off from the song inspiration. I hope you do enjoy this poem as well.

I had so much to say that night
I let these walls crumble down
They remained my paper walls
My defensive spirit
Always guarded my heart
Now all that was left
Was nothing inside
You rushing in and out
Taking what you wanted
Then running back in time
Claiming them to be yours
Always the pieces remaining mine

These paper walls were thin
They outgrew their strength
The day I met you when you walked in
Each day they crumbled piece by piece
Now they cant be put together
I tried to sow them back on
I failed at my many attempts
Its all over now, you control them
Do what you want I cant stop you
I cant tell you what to do
This is the end of forever
The end of what I knew

I dont know what else to say
I find nothing comes out right
I seem to upset you
And yet I never seem to ask
Somehow for you to return
My paper walls you hold on to
I should ask why you keep them
But I know why in my mind
Torturing me slowly from behind
I cant seem to make it alone
They were once a part of me
Now I know they belong to you
And you wont ever set them free
