MIRROR MIRROR

I am holding this dream in my hands
but it feels like it is running through my fingers like sand
I keep all you gave me
on my mind to carry on.
I walk through empty streets
so I can hide my tears in the rain
and my soul in the dark
I'm counting again the scars on my heart
tending those that are still wide open
I am looking to gain back my light
I must hide myself until then
because I don't want my dark to devour you
although we are in this path together
mirroring each others, so it said.
And, I now am wondering, who is actually in the dark
and hiding.
Look now, who is near to you
in front of that wall
unable to take a leap of faith
and you find me there with you

WALLS

In this cold empty space
the walls are coming closer
I am building them again with all my fears
brick after brick
and I want to run, run away
and leave them behind
but wherever I turn I see other walls
and I don't have anymore the power to tear them down

How I end up here again?

I traveled through thousands lives
keeping searching, knowing I find you
each time on my path
loosing the gap on dreams and words along the way

Now on my knees
in front of this wall
I feel the heaviness of every choice we've made
and I just want you to hold me
assuring me you are behind it
to not give in
but,
the sadness is killing me using my fears as weapon .
