Let the world know
What lies within these walls
Behind the bricks
Beneath the sound
Of constructions inevitable call
Pennsylvania street beckons to me
But the broken cameras
Restrict the movement of
Curious teens.
The pages flip
And the story continues
to the square we’re trapped inside
Four sides hidden by no lies
But underestimated every time
Take a look around
Which can your words foretell
Is it the wind under your words
That link you to this tale?
Lifeless trees will lose their leaves
But cement bricks will bind us
In a sea of people
A whirlwind of trust
My body rests before a crowd of angry eyes
Despite my pathetic attempts to
Understand the damage inside.
I smile to show the rain will not drown me
But the thunder and lightning will always surround me
From this pencil comes the winter’s chill
But I cling to these surroundings
My thoughts ring still.
