Walls go up for the hell

that dwells deep in my head

that sweeps the bowels of

my stomach and rises dead.

---

I take in the inferno blue

that burns hotter so choose

I do the tunes that churn

moments I can live through.

---

So damn manic so I panic

the day played out not well.

The walls are tall so welcome

not to my guarded fairy-tale.

---

Secret I keep it so close my

overtures of revelry in heaven;

physical touch my God expects

a part of my bread to leaven.

---

But a sorrow sweeps my soul

inside a desert expanse a field

of my joyful dreams is where

my inner devils are revealed.

---

I cry inside my head so you

can not nor ever will see,

that I cry deep inside my heart

for my demons to let me free.

---

Maybe it will be enough for me

once I expel the leviathan down

back to the unspoken parts of

my inner sanctum not to be found.

---

Children weep in the streets

of my city up up and away stay.

I turn to just listen to them

unsettled on this tragic day.
