[bodytext] => There is nothing that seeps through These unrelenting walls, Where within, a creature hungers for caress, It calls. Fortifications that guard mysteries inside, Keep away the constant pain, By which we all abide. The tops of the towers disappear Untouched by human vision, Cannot be climbed, cannot be seiged By infinite precision. The stones do not loosen from flattery and deceit Those who do, kindness may come, But friendship will not greet. Swords, force and flowers cannot tear down Such dense partitions. Those who speak and receive no response Do not listen. There are two who stand at either end Who’ve waited patiently, They are the ones who comprehend That there is no physical key. They wait for welcome, and every word take heed, That they have braved the storms and shadow; While the others flee. For them the walls have crumbled, for others remained the same for them, I come flying when either breathes my name.
