Howling
April 19, 2018
Howling
for me
to come home.
a home
isn't a home
if you don't belong.
out of place
in this space
and the walls
closing in;
the ceiling's
getting shallower
and the doors
locking
their own.
Slam.
the next door's shut.
a window
should open
in place,
but there's no way out;
no way in
this empty space.
a plastic void.
sucks my soul,
till there is but void.
cold.
no air
to breathe.
no breath
to seethe.
and no life
to conceive.
I don't know why
I come back,
just to leave.

Well, I'm gay. Have been. For a while. My dad is homophobic. Has been. For a while. I haven't told him, but this is just my thought on paper ("paper") about that. If this goes anywhere, my parents will definately not find out about it. Especially with this description.
