Like an elephant behind a wall
I feel so small.
Like a bird in a cage
is this coming of age.
Our love was so full of life
Now so full of strife.
Why can't I just get away
All I want with you is to stay.
Will we ever be able to proceed
with everything we dream?
What if this is just a waste of time
and I just get left behind?
Forever waiting for the love
that they say only comes from above.
But you are my everything
nothing else is even worth comparing.

Far away I feel I have traveled
to this place I seem to have unraveled.
Further and further I seem to drift
into a state of mind that's only a myth.
The things that held me together
have become nothing, as if just a feather.
I look around for the glue
that held me together, which was you.

How is it that you still get to me underneath
after all this time we have had beneath?
Deep down low I have buried
all the emotions that constantly vary.
Irritating me to my core
making my entire soul sore.
Why does it have to be this way
with every ounce of what you say?

You are driven by a force way stronger than a gail
I prefer to move at the speed of a snail.
You charge into a space with no regard
which only makes me want to hide and guard.
You over power my senses
making me put up fences.
How should I relax and be at peace
when you can't seem to cease.
But something draws me time and time again
to your unrelenting grip on my heart
even though I know it's not very smart
I can't be without you ever again.

Pushing me into a corner
towering me as if you're my owner.
Crushing me with your presence
causing self imposed penance.
How should I cope
when all I can do is mope?
I know what you say maybe true
but do you even have a clue?
The pressure maybe too great
please tell me it's not too late.
