Walls

everyone wants to build walls around the little girl that dreams big

she dreamt of a million chances and oppurtunities

she fantasized about who she would become and the places she would go

she dreamt of her parents who broke past the wall and put their own 

dreams on hold in order for her to flourish 

and how much she just wanted to make them proud 

But as a little girl nobody ever told her that coming from behind the wall 

would limit her dreams and disparage her hopes

nobody told her that she would need permission to live

this little girl just wants to thrive off of this nations fruit and bounty

but being from behind the wall makes her an outcast 

it makes the nation scared of her scared of the little girl that dreams of a better future

scared that she'll take away when all she wants to do is give so they build walls around her walls 300 feet high so not even her spirit can get in and 300 feet deep so her corpse cant crawl in

"GIVE HER FREEDOM!" her people yell but the voices behind the wall are never heard
