Another Wall to Climb

Two years ago

I had to climb the same wall

Only thicker this time

And right now I am torn between

Climbing it

Or watching it stand strong

Regardless of what lies behind

If I do climb it

Will there be creatures

To eat my midnight dreams

And drink my morning smiles

Or dandelions to start my day

And the stars to end my night

If I stand still

Will the wall wither

Like the sunflowers during fall

Or will it remain standing mighty

like the ruins of St.Paul

Nonetheless I ended

The argument against myself

And started climbing the wall

With uncut nails

Leaving stains of blood

On the surface

While having speculations

About what this is for
