Tear Down the Gray

by Lauren Waszkiewicz   Jan 14, 2007


Tear down the Gray
This bleak wall that restrains us
Break me free, let me see
The brilliant colors around me

Tear down the fake
This woven web of false accusations
Don't act surprised, Do .not. criticize
We know that we are the ones who lie

Tear down the hate
Stop the ignorant and unjust crimes
Leave us be, Learn to see
Being yourself is what you should be.

Tear down the gray,
Tear down the fake,
Tear down the hate,
'Cause it may not happen today.
but Karma's a b!*ch
and It'll surely come,
back around some day.

    I loved the idea of the poem, and it flowed very well. I also liked the way it made me feel, like Written In Blood said, its very interactive and plays with the emotions.
