Wall

The clash of thoughts inside
My worn out head
Make me want to find a wall
And beat my soft skull against it
But unfortunately
All of the walls are made out of
Kind words that bend with every movement.

And please don't hurt your lovely head.

I kind of thought Pink Floyd and then I thought Facebook :P

Thanks though and no worries my head is perfectly safe (maybe not-so sane but that's okay).
