Here's a poem by me. The poem speaks about the differences that exist in society. Read on!
Walls
As the walls before me seem sky high,
My mind fills with thoughts I just can’t deny.
I think of walls that separate a warrior from his beloved,
Of those that cause wars most horrid.
Walls that demark the blacks from the whites,
Walls that cause communities to fight.
Those that exist in people with minds narrow,
Those that keep the isolated in their sorrow.
Those that keep dark secrets from seeing the day’s light,
Of those the British set up - to uphold their might.
But how strange it is to discover
How a mysterious truth itself uncovers.
Of all the walls that cross my mind,
The concrete ones are the weakest you can find!
its good neil..please write more about it..am sure it'll be better with more content in it.
ReplyDeleteits so simple yet so touching.........while i was going thru it,i got lost in the deep thought and the beautiful message that this poem seeks to spread..........
