I Saw Your Beauty Once

Walls are made for us
to yearn from the other side,
loose bricks breaking hearts

Walls are made and placed
to be tall and to be proud
but I feel no pride

I place my ear there...
let me hear your heart again-
no, bricks don't share sound

There is only wind
a delicate, lonely thing
and I feel defeat

I was something once
but the wall is here to stay
no way to know you

...No way to know you
and you were so beautiful
I can only dream
