Safe Inside These Walls

Her heart was a secret garden, and the walls were very high--
Brick and mortar caked together, reaching to the sky.
Every day she walked along the lonely willow path,
Thinking it was best to stay where peacefully she'd cry.

The brick walls watching every day could see what she denied--
Our princess didn't want this cage, but to herself she'd lie:
"A human needn't see the world when everything will crash;
Better to stay safe behind these walls so very high."
