My Accomplice
These walls were once pure
and white as snow
But frankly,
that was a lifetime ago
I stole their innocence
in the darkest hours of the night
I forced myself upon them
and stained them
to match the color of my heart
Like a sponge,
they absorb everything
They're cracking and crumbling
under the weight of keeping
all my secrets safe
