I Remember These Walls.

He was once the light I knew

Now the clouds drift over my chest

And we all know what happens next.

I am complicated, I am transfixed.

The piano no one dares to touch in the hotel lobby.

Dust collects on my keys and i lose my tune.

I rot from the insides out.

The maggots crawling in to make me uncomfortable.

So uncomfortable in my own skin.

Remember when we sat under the stars,

Fighting like children because I was down again?

You were angry to be denied lifting me up

And suddenly, I was not allowed to speak.

I could not even show you the sadness;

You said it was so pointless.

Now I am blessed and yet left in that mentality.

For why would he chance a love to love a ghost,

A decaying piano like me?

You helped do this to me,

No care, no concern, no regret.

I dislike you greatly.
