PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I see all these things

that are occurring

and find it amazing.

How can it be?

I am an artist

I am a poet

I’m trying to tear down

all the boundaries;

I’m trying to bulldoze

the walls that separate

people from each other

but even this noble aim

remains a joke

as I can not even

knock down my own walls;

the ones that isolate me

and keep me at a distance

from everyone I meet

I shall continue anyhow

I shall tear down the walls

beginning with the ones

I constructed

to imprison myself
