Love Poem: Blank Walls

Blank Walls

What do you see when you look

At a wall?

Most of us see nothing

But white.

They see no pain, no emotion, no grief.

But for those of us

That know what it is to be

Abandoned, heartbroken, unloved,

We see all the stories that wall

Could tell us,

If only we would

Stop for a minute,

And listen.

Just listen.

~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~

Do you hear them whispering

To you while you sleep?

They're trying to talk.

They're trying to tell you

What they've seen,

What they've heard.

Stop for a minute,

And listen.

Just listen.

~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~o~

They're exploding

With information,

With knowledge.

Stop for a minute,

And listen.

Just listen.
