I wish these walls could talk

poem i wrote last night...

I wish these walls could talk
and listen day by day

I'm sure that in each conversation,
I'd have lots to say.

but i think that if these walls could talk,
they'd have a story, too

I'd bet they'd tell me
all about how they sheltered you

they'd comfort me
and hold me up

I could talk all day
and they'd never dissrupt

I'd tell them of
my problems,
all the burdens i have held

I'd tell them of the soft layer
behind this hardcore shell

if these walls could talk
I'd probably stay home

right here i'd sit, cold and alone

but right now all i have
are my dear trusty friends
if these wall could talk,
would i leave them?
depends...

I've talked to these walls
many times before,

so much, i've grown to like them
more and more

for they do not tell secrets,
they keep them safe

they'd never look down
upon me
with cruelty and hate

but the one thing that tends
to make my heart sore

is that these walls
are plaster,
and nothing more.
