Stone Walls

Jump to Comments

Was built many years back
By an army a thousand strong
A clear plan they clearly lacked
It soon went dreadfully wrong

Built a fortress of solid rock
Could still put up some resistance
It can withstand the greatest shock
But they forgot to build an entrance

What’s important is what’s inside
A treasure that is yearned
Many an adventurer has tried
But it’s hidden to the world

People have toiled away
Chipping at the wall
They would hope and pray
With no luck at all

Is there any hope for you?
Is there any hope for me?
You could hack until you’re blue
And still be nowhere near

If it’s really what you want
Please lay down chisel, give it to me
I don’t expect you to even try
but please stay with me.
