palace bound

walls that bind with glass to see

all that i can never reach

the vivid hopes and dreams i breathe

to keep me standing on my feet

walls will bind with darkened glass

so i can try, forget my past

the ocean and the swaying trees

the family i held close to me

walls that quickly seal my death

suffocating each new breath

im over this insanity—

the waltz of my mortality

i would like to walk through walls

i would like to set us free
