Borderli(N)Es

Born into paradise
My right to joy
My privilege to consume

These walls aren't thick enough
These fences aren't high enough
These gates won't protect the frail

Politics of blood and soil
Neglecting bright minds
Holding us captive
Obstructed to find better ways

These walls aren't strong enough to keep us apart
As we imagine to hold our loved ones

Too much pain
Too much grief
As we hold on to barriers
Gripped by the fear of the unknown

These borders are lines that cut our minds
There is no way to hold us
These borders are lines that cut through lives
A humiliation of mankind

Break down the constructs
That confine us

Unburdened and free

These borders are lies
A humiliation of mankind
