These Walls

Grey, 9th - Jackson CA
These walls are covered
Covered in stories
Covered in perfection
Covered in lives
Covered in deception

These walls read tales
Wonderful histories with heroes
Patiently recited on a platform
The stories that surround me
These walls 

These walls only display the best things
Colors and measured emotions
Canvases covered with phenomenal paintings
The colors that surround me
These walls

These walls portray existence
Beautiful lives with beautiful people
People who could never be hated
The people who surround me
These walls

These walls are full of lies
Twisted gossip meant to maim the soul
Fresh rumors to hide the revolting splotches of gray
The lies that surround me
These walls

The walls trap me inside
Inside of a place where flaws are not permitted
Untrue things are said to destroy those who have imperfections
These walls are what surround me
The stories
The perfection
The lives
The deception

Everything surrounding me, suffocating me
Erasing, snuffing out the differences
