These walls hold the secrets of many before us They shout the words of anger coming from drunk lips They bury the cries of the broken hearted They hold the whispered sweet nothings of lovers They gleam with laughter of a family They hum to the silence of a sleeping baby These walls are painted with the raw emotion of people I’ve never met I stare at them blankly trying to figure out where to start my story

These Walls
These walls hold the secrets of many before us They shout the words of anger coming from drunk lips They bury the cries of the broken hearted They hold the whispered sweet nothings of lovers They gleam with laughter of a family They hum to the silence of a sleeping baby These walls are painted with the raw emotion of people I’ve never met I stare at them blankly trying to figure out where to start my story
