If Walls could talk
Jesus that'd be a scary world
Just imagine,
Would They be judgmental?
Would They be supportive?
Would They be the words of wisdom and a shoulder to cry on?
Would They tell me 'don't say that' or 'you'll regret that later' or 'don't just let her walk out like that.'
Would They be the stabilization I so terribly need? The mother I wish I had, or the sister I desperately want.
Tell me what's right from wrong, how to make my life better and what it is thats ******* up my brain. After all, They do witness everything.
My Walls would know me better than any human could.
They see me at my happiest, hear every conversation I have, witness my constant vulnerability, even when I'm so low that I put holes in that kind plaster and spill my blood for Them to see.
They know all, like a god. The thought of Them having the ability to speak as we do is petrifying. If I could, I would apologize to my Walls. For all the fights and the screaming and the holes and everything they've had to see. I'm so sorry friends, for all the *******.
And I would thank Them for always being there for me, even thought they don't have a choice.
Now if Walls could walk, I know mine would ride the next bus out of town.
No way would They want to deal with my reckless *** any longer.

The sweetness of summer in the islands of paradise
Can only be appreciated with someone by your side
You kept me warm at night
Held me while I cried
Told me our love was one to last the ride

I spent my weeks with you right beside me
Laughing, rebelling, your hands always around me
Our first kiss was one of a fairytale
And all the ones to follow left magic in the air

I've said it once I'll say it a million times
I need you in my life until the day I die
You taught me how to love
How to live for the moment
And when time gives you a gift with an expiration date
You need to find a way to preserve it

You are everything I need and more
A blessing set 3,000 miles away from me
You were built for me, I was meant to find you
I know this is true because I know you love me too

*A wanderer who's guided by the stars sees the sunrise before the rest of the world
