The Walls

October 18, 2009

By GOLD, San Jose, California

More by this author

There are walls everywhere
They block my every move
Like a labyrinth they move
Stopping my thoughts of leaving
Sometimes I feel
I should bang my head
Against those walls
For all my progress
With my parents

The author's comments:

Fighting with parents is an unfortunate side effect of growing up. But fighting over something tiny, stupid and ultimately inconsequential to all parties involved is like wandering through the Minotaur's labyrinth without Perseus' string. Ultimately you lose track of the exit and sometimes all you want is to break free.
