SILENT SCREAM

WALLED IN
by:Uree
Behind these walls
Behind those walls
Behind all walls
One lives
Behind the wall
One laughs, one cries
One loves, one hates
One dreams, one prays
Behind the wall
Behind the wall
Everyone is the same
In what one does
Behind the wall
Behind the wall
No one recognizes
Their commonalities
With everyone else
Behind the wall
Behind the wall
Everyone thinks life is better
Behind that wall
Than it is
Behind this wall
Yet
Life is never perfect
Behind any wall!

Aren't you glad that the walls don't talk? We'd have to tell them to shut the f**k up.

Good poem.

Hrm.
It's all very true.
I sgree with Lady Jane. I am so glad the walls don't talk. Or, at least that they don't speak English.
