Invisible Walls

When I look at the world

I see a hundred million people,

All lonely,

All wishing someone would care about them,

Too worried about not being loved

To bother loving anyone else.

The irony of it is,

Everyone else is doing the exact same thing.

If only they could break through

The invisible walls all around them

And realize that beyond the walls

Of hate and fear and misunderstanding . . . .

Are countless people just like them.
