The Walls See Everything
October 8, 2013
They don't see it, but I do, I see her lie awake at night, wake up in the morning, look at herself in the mirror and scrunch her nose in disgust. A new coat of paint would be nice, but she doesn't bother with it anymore, maybe because she's the only one who would ever see it.
The door of her room, however, has been decorated very beautifully with rose lip gloss and plastered with a fake smile. Everyone looks at it from the outside and thinks it's lovely, they don't know what the inside is like, but I do, the walls see everything.
