An Uninvolved Observer
If the walls had ears
They'd experience everything and nothing.
They'd hear the witty phrases,
the stormy arguments,
the cackling laughs,
the shrieks of agony,
the awkward silences
and the tears of joy.
But so what?
They can't be a part of it.
Imagine the torture
of having one single human characteristic
while never being able to act human.
Just imagine it.
