i tried to break into your walls,
they were so high and strong
and that intimidated me,
but the thought that
you were there alone
scared me even moreso i gathered my best equipment
and decided to make the climb
i put my fear away
and left my fearful heart behindat the bottom of the mighty wall,
i feel my resolve wavering
but then i thought of you
and i stopped myself from quaveringone step here, another step there
if i fall, would you care?
my arms are getting tired
this situation is rather direbut i kept climbing,
i kept myself reaching
the higher i went up,
the risks worsened
but for you i kept climbingand then i see you
standing over the edge
of the wall you built,
ready to jumpmy heart raced and
i forced myself to go faster
i could still save you
i could still help youthe higher i went up,
the swords that you've planted
have started to cut me
the arrows you've shot
are hitting me
but i kept climbingyou looked down
and looked me at the eyes
you were in pain
and i was here to helpi screamed words of comfort,
i reminded you that i was here
whether you heard me or not,
i will never knowbattling against my shredding heart,
overlooking the pain of the climb,
im tired and ready to give up
but you step closer to the edgei was almost there,
but then you jumped
almoststanding at the top of your wall,
i realize now
you cannot save everyone
