Weeping Towers

The towers of memories crumble to ashes.

The architecture tumbles, crawls,

Crashes.


Heart and hand built these walls.

Love and time must watch them fall.


Hatred devours like a fire,

Taking down every spire.


I watch it all go to hell,

I admire its wicked spell.


Weeping towers I built from sand.

They all die at my own hand.


What can I do to stop this destruction?

What can I do to save my construction?


Put out the fire.

Douse the flames.

My only desire

Is to mend my shame.


Rebuild them,

My weeping towers.

Stack them higher, and higher

And higher…
