Struggle
March 18, 2014
The walls are paper thin,
And the door is open.
Every day and every night,
I hear the words spoken.
How do I make them stop?
Same words replied and yelled.
I'm told to forget,
But I don't need to be compelled.
It's all in my head.
But the walls are caving in,
About to crash down.
Everything goes silent, and you can hear the drop of a pin.
As much as I try, as hard as I push,
I can't close the door.
It's locked in place,
The door won't move, not a centimeter more.
