Where do all the apologies go

Where do all the apologies go
The ones unheard, unspoken of
Do they haunt the houses they can't move on from
Do they move through the walls
Waiting for the calls
Of the broken ones
Or do they accept they are forever trapped behind these doors

Waiting to be revealed 
Waiting to be accepted 
Wanting to restore 
A love that had been buried behind these walls

Apologies are supposed to be loud
To echo a love that is proud
The house was empty
In the silence it carried
Filled with a family
That acted like strangers 
What once was a house of love
Was now a house full of secrets
Embedded within the houses structure 
Not even destruction 
Could unearth the the truth
Hidden for so long

So what happens to all of the apologies? 
And will they ever leave?
