paper hearts {poem}

hotel rooms

have paper walls

thin lines connecting and separating

it’s inhabitants

words are heard through paper walls

but nothing is seen

leaving you 

to put together the pieces

of other people

life 

has paper walls

plain and simple

barriers and band-aids

connecting and separating people

you see people for who 

they seem to be

you do not listen

still left putting together pieces

going through life

never listening

taking for granted what you see

filling in the pieces

destroys

hurts

judges

ripping apart

paper hearts

what you see

it’s never what you get

people are not paper walls

they live

and breathe

standing, with depth

look inside

listen
