Walls

Walls keep building
Never breaking down.
People don’t even look at me,
I feel so alone.

No one will listen,
No one cares,
That inside I have feelings,
That I am human too.

Why do people stare at me?
Children point and laugh.
Am I really that much different?
I just don’t understand.

I wish someone would talk to me, and try to understand
That I too have human needs, one of which is love.
But the walls just keep building
And never breaking down.
