I've been hearing strange noises coming from the other side of the wall in our apartment. It sounds like people talking and laughing, like a group of friends enjoying dinner together. But there's something uncanny about it the way their voices sound. It's similar to how a recording sounds when you play it backwards. Warped. Unintelligible. And it makes no sense, because that wall is what separates our apartment from the outside. There can't possibly be a room there. My boyfriend doesn't believe me at all. One day I knocked and shouted "hello?". Eerie silence. I haven't heard anything since.
The wall blocks the true world outside of your imagination. That wall lets you enjoy a world of fantasy, happiness and love. It's a great place, wouldn't you say? But... that wall is also a trap to you. It is a cage that won't let you free, a realm that is cut loosely from the true world without a single care. Is it truly a great place? Break the wall. Bring that world inside the wall out of your head, and use it to make that true world outside your head a happy, great place without those trapping walls existing.
META: I'm tired and this is shit. hope you like it!
