If Walls Could Speak

If walls could talk
And talk could walk
Interesting stories, a grave yard of worries
Out film it would run.
Paralyzed voice of reason 
Could wander but still remain

Stories of shame where timing 
And its niece time are blamed
Visions, conclusions and reasoning far aimed
A journey to our first meeting
To when you left without us meeting
Oh! If walls could talk
I promise you'd hear stories

Clear description of this evening 
Just when I was looking @ the mirror
Day light passing night comin' nearer 
My reflection like a perfect statue 
Made it difficult to ignore the queue
Of questions, queries & quarters of incomplete plans
If walls could speak 
You'd know my secrets
And one being I miss us.
