Against The Wall

Folder: 
2002

Forced to look

Somewhere I always pushed away

Not an option

No lingering thoughts

That has always been the way

But I'm pinned now

Because I'm letting myself

Be pinned

And I've sinned now

Those thoughts have done more

Than just sit

On impulse my body weakens

Because I want it to

But my mind as clear as ever

Knows that it can't be you

No it can't

Too much to breathe

Too much to think

Too many complications here for me

If I let you in

You'll creep under my skin

And I'll feel the sting

Of consequence

Why can't I stop looking

Where there should be nothing

To see

First of all you're a very talented young lady. Secondly, your lines move like the air you're breathing; in and out. Thirdly, it's very unique how you're emotionally against a wall, not a physical one. Forthy, I totally respect your decision not to cave into temptation and have regrets after. Great write. Loads of talent. Love it.
