Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren\&#039;t you already there? <br /> -Richard Bach

If these four walls could speak,
They would tell you this,
The secrets that keep me, me,
The who and why,
The things I’ve done inside these four walls,
Me, myself, and I.

These walls have ears, eyes,
But no mouths,
They hear you,
They can see you!

These walls know me for me,
And not for what anyone else,
Wants me to be,
It’s only me and my four walls.
