If Walls Could Talk...

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 fucking 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 bullshit. 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 ass any longer.
