Alone and lonely

I walk these halls

Within this barren place

Of my own choosing...

Closed off from the world

These tall walls surround me

What once was a haven

Now a prison,

And no more

I say aloud to myself

I care not...

For how it begun

Nor of the dark memories

That still fill me

But the pain and the heartbreak

Still linger on...

And deny my own words

To me...

I know no peace

A deep longing fills me

To break through these walls

That surround me

My wish is to leave

These cold empty halls

But the way to do so

Is now well...

Beyond me
