Echoes

Echoes of my pleas bounce off these walls,

I keep pushing yet they still will not fall.

Like the Great Wall of China,

Yet it took much less to build.

Tougher to destroy,

Like a feather against a shield.

These walls must tumble down,

It's the only way I can be healed.

Echoes of my pleas are all that I hear,

Only I know the sound, not another ear.

Tell Kaluuya I can relate,

I need to get out of here.

My own hostage-taker,

Free me from myself.

These walls I've built are closing in,

This is my cry for help.
