My wall

In a world wholy destructive
I seek to build
a mighty fortress
and in it my heart will heal.

Electricity shocks
as do your hands
My mind finds it hard
to obey my hearts commands.

If kisses can kill
already I am dead
Incessant invitations
come from where you've led.

So, my love, my darling
I will construct my wall
and forget the scary past
never again will I let it fall.
