Walls and Barriers

WALLS

The wall divides
the inside from the
outside...
                                  
On one side
the wrong,
on the other side
 crooked ...
Who that builds walls,
thinks only he is doing well ...
Thinks he is isolating
 black from white,
 Is he capable ?
                                  
There are walls that apart
love things ... and hate.
Wall  that detaches
things from thoughts
segregates lives
out of fear,
isolates people
for not loving ...
                                 
The wall divides
life in two
parts:
the side of the hiding place
and the danger side ...
the side of the refuge
and the free side of the street ...

One side of the wall
one thinks it right,
the other side
also...
None knows which side
 is adequate...
If no one is sure,
every one  doubt
what is right...?
The truth is
all we have
walls ... wall
built inside
us ...!
we need to overthrow
this wall so that
 we will not leave our 
private jail ...!
