White walls stare at me from all sides
Blank
Nothing changing
But maybe a flicker of a shadow
So seems the story of my life
Dull boring and the same everyday
Small unimportant events happening every now and then
Oh, how I wish such walls were colorful and vibrant!
That they were splashed with blues, reds, and yellows,
That my life was exciting and different each day!
But alas... such walls of my life shalln't change
These walls shall stay white and blank
With nothing ever happening to my small, accursed soul
Why am I the one cursed with such fate?
Why am I the one to suffer so?
With only flickers of shadows on the blank, white walls of my life?
