I ran to the one with the hardest shell
Scared to find another endless well
foreboding...dark...making me drown
Because the Asian still holds my purple crown
I asked for it once, but he withheld
And now my heart is a bleeding cell
Once again
You were so close...so near-then you flew
You started to run, becoming unglued
So I laid there on sand, pleading for truth
Youthful faces may betray us
Growing patience will delay us
Everyone's been Scared to Death of Dying
But I want to Live. Breathe. Quit all this whining
Maybe honesty's just too much because when we
Barely even touch, our mouths tighten 'round ev'ry secret
Building hilltops of regret...on sacred ground.
Whisper just one, CLEAR, open sound
I promise I will listen!
Can't you hear the battle cry!?
I am breaking only because you keep taking
And Twisting this tale of dreams
Ripping my trust right down the seams
I'm so scared of you
I'm so aware of you
I'm so confused by you
He holds my hand
He stays by me on sand
He clears my doubts with one look at this land
He's waiting in the wings
Clinging to the hope of my return
And I hate standing by, just watching him burn
Maybe I should quit trying and learn
How to Let Live and Let Die
So If Yellow is your Mountain Strategy
it's failing quite miserably
Maybe I should Break Away and Fall
While you keep building those high, impenetrable walls
I'm so sorry

INTENSE!! first off i kno exactly who this is about. jake duhh!!! the asian part kinda got me. haha. that was the hint. and it was soo deep because it was about him hurting u many times and u just want to give up but u see him getting hurt by ur actions and u want him to not hurt but at the same time its like BAM i hate u! thats what i got out of this poem. which i loved by the way!!!
