Wonderwall

In this fortress I built

I hid myself in.

In that way,

I kept all the pirates at bay.

In the shadows of the night

they tried to crawl their way in,

but through the slippery slopes,

not even one managed to get in.

Somehow,

you were the only one

bold enough to light a torch

to signal your approach.

Because you knew,

no matter how high these walls are,

the light you bring 

could still manage to creep in

through the gaps in between.

there are many things that 

I would like to say to you

but I don't know how

because maybe,

you're gonna be the one that saves me

and after all

you're my wonderwall

***Funny how all day through, I was thinking about writing a different piece but somehow I still ended up writing this one instead. And add to that, finding a perfectly fitting song, and when I looked up the definition of the word, a perfectly fitting meaning too. I guess it's time to start trusting my instincts again.
