Walls of Alienation

Wow I loved this very well written. The imagery is incredible
waking to
the beauty in the
sadness,
and the sadness
in the beauty
of these unchained walls,
I loved those lines keep on writing.

I LOVED IT... it was so good, I had to read it a couple times before I got it but I like poems that make me think and try to figure out what the authors trying to tell me but I gave it 5 stars...this piece is really good u used great descriptive words that gave it a real nice texture and that’s rare!
