I'm stuck inside glass walls,
pounding my fists against the glass
But in this airtight space,
I am choked out by the lack of you,
your living breath
And as the tears come
and the fight goes out of me,
I'm left to wonder
why you aren't fighting for me.

I used to hear you,
feel you,
breathe you
but I feel nothing.
I hear nothing.
Am I on a different frequency,
because all I hear is the dead air echoing.
Do you not hear these heart cries,
see me wanting you??

I'm frustrated with you.
I want so badly to be that little girl
falling at your feet
and in your love, I know you'd take me
but somehow I can't
because I'm trapped in these glass walls
where omnipresence feels laughable
Where are you?
I've never needed you more.

I know you hold the hammer
to shatter these walls
I know you are the only one who can break me down
I'm begging you to meet me in this place where I'm condemned
