Look Beyond


Dear KMZ

Who else would write to you but me?

I know who you are even when you don’t.

We know you’re struggling, and you blame the wall around you.

You think the wall you have around yourself is gonna come down

You can’t think that because you don’t have a wall around you.

 

Do you really think we would work so hard just to run into a wall.

I know you’re scared the wall will crumble down.

But I’m telling you now it's not a wall.

Its a door we worked hard for a door.

 

A door that's unlocked into a new world.

One that's unkind and scary.

The door is open and you have to go.

Because I know you want to go no matter how scared you are.

And if you still think its a wall then let it crumble.

It's time to look beyond the wall you see.

 

Sincerely,

Riceball

P.S Thank you for every letter you send.
