I'm woven in a fantasy,

I can't believe the things I see;

The path that I have chosen now has led me to a wall.

And with each passing day,

I feel a little more like something dear was lost.....

It rises now before me,

A dark and silent barrier between all I am,

And all that I would ever want to be

It's just a travesty;

Towering, marking off the boundaries my spirit

would erase.....

To pass beyond is what I seek,

I fear that I may be too weak,

And those are few who've seen it through

To pass the other side;

The promised land is waiting,

Like a maiden who is soon to be a bride.

The moment is a masterpiece,

The weight of indecision's in the air

It's standing there,

The symbol and the sum of all that's me

It's just a travesty,

Towering, blocking out the light and blinding me;

I want to see......

Gold and diamonds cast a spell,

It's not for me I know it well;

The riches that I seek are waiting on the other side.

There's more that I can measure

In the treasure of the love that I can find.

And though it's always been with me,

I must tear down the wall and let it be

All I am, and all that I was ever meant to be

In harmony.

Shining true and smiling back at all who wait to cross,

THERE IS NO LOSS!
