Emotional Bars
I gathered all of my dreams,
frustrations, wishes, and fears.
And stored them in a tower
guarded by a moat of tears.
Emotional bars won't let
those guarded feelings escape.
And a web of sticky lies
prevents them from taking shape.
Spanning the drawbridge of time;
Hope has built a secret door.
And beyond it lies a path;
that leads me back to before.
But I threw away the key
needed to unlock that door.
I'm locked in a memory,
lost to time forevermore.
