A wandering Romantic
Whose eyes don't stride up and down the streets of your metropolis?
Who picks up the litter filled with insults you told yourself on your day-to-day strolls
replacing them with sidewalks containing imprinted affirmations on every proceeding block?
Do you smile in the alleyways knowing what you mean to me?
Is there a citizen in your city who respects your nation's laws?
The liberty of your skin
The fairness in your speech
Can a foreigner like myself find a place in your kingdom?
A nation so great
I would give my life in a heartbeat for your freedoms
