reincarnate

cracked and vandalized

chipped paint and water stains

passersby are disgusted

quick to judge and hate

this wall is broken from within

you can see it 

trapped inside

bare and open 

for the world to see

that is what it longs to be

a blank canvas

a new slate

a chance to reincarnate

beautifully

hidden beneath 

a thick layer of paint 

this wall screams 

to be seen again

to breathe again

to be given a chance

to start again
