barriers.

A city filled with life and beauty. 

Bright and lively from a distance.

Admired from afar the beauty can be seen seen. 

Yet the walls hide the truth of a tragic mess. 

no one comes in, no truth is known

the fading lights and helpless citizens cry for help

the wall is strong but longs to fail

the wall will not be conquered with an army surrounding it. 

the wall may fall only for the one with honest intentions to save the city.
