A Life Of Self-Restraint
RESTRAINT becomes a wall
between us, and i have kept
myself behind this thick wall,
always loving you, but always
denying it,
i cease to be a dropp of water,
neither moss,
every layer of my days
covers this softness making
another rock, and i am fortified
into another roadblock
to my dreams, it is here that
indifference hardens
into a fortress of dignity,
which the ocean even has not fathomed
this is it, this is it,
denial, restraint, punishment, redemption
you drive me into a destiny
you look straight as i look at you
passionately.
