Indeed.Pain is there for all to share.I enjoyed this poem.The great Australian Actress Ruth Cracknell once fell on stage.They asked her if she was in pain. Pain she said \"I\'ve been in pain everyday of my life.\" Its kind of like a companion in many ways.Wonderful poem.Made me think

Katie, I connected deeply with the shift near the end…that idea that suffering can either hollow us completely or become something that deepens compassion and hope for others. That feels very lived-in and real to me. Beautifully done, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Pain like everything else in this universe has its positives and negatives. The negatives we know well but the positives are seldom touched on. Nicely done

Tristan Robert Lange said:

Katie, this is really moving. The ending is so striking to me...“He belonged to us / But first he belonged to the stars.” That lands with such grace and reverence...like recognizing someone was always a little larger than this world could fully hold. Beautiful closing, friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Tristan Robert Lange said:

My friend, this feels deeply familiar…the way a lived-in space slowly becomes witness, companion, memory keeper. The walls almost become another presence in the poem. Really loved this one, Katie. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

Friendship said:

Nicely said. Your poem\'s observation about color perception is quite homey as my husband and I discovered when we painted our living and dining rooms. Depending on the lighting, the paint seemed to shift between yellow in sunlight and white under our indoor lights, almost taking on different personalities.

I Like These Walls
Thomas W Case said:

This reads like quiet gratitude carved into something lived-in and solid—almost like companionship made out of space and paint.
There’s a gentle loneliness in it too, but it’s softened by how faithfully those walls hold everything you’ve been.

That old saying \" I wish I were a fly on the wall\" I wish I were the wall it sees and hears much more it knows all. Well said in this poem that reveals knowledge and is seen as a paternal or maternal guardian. Well written Katie

As we walk we often sing to ourselves, something privative but comforting, a beat for the feet and solace to greet. Nicely written
