Eye Spy

If a wall had eyes,
What would they see?
Rooms filled with clutter, 
And messes of debris.
If a wall had eyes, 
How would they look? 
Would they see a villain,
A hero, or a crook? 
If a wall had eyes, 
Would we see them peep? 
I wondered what they’d see,
A body stuck in sleep? 
If a wall had eyes, 
Would we feel them glance? 
Staring at our souls,
When they get the chance. 
I sit and I ponder,
If these walls had eyes. 
While Staring at a wall,
I listen for replies.  
I hear my conscience,
Whisper in my ear. 
Look into the mirror, 
And a wall will appear.
