What the front door.


I found myself in a dark empty room,
-The doors sealed and the curtains drawn-
trembling in the corner with a broken bulb,
That was casting shadows on the wall.

Each of the windows had their own face,
through the wooden boards they’d speak.
Each one had warned her not to stay,
And made it so that she couldn’t leave.

Every single night was a restless night,
For the figures lurking in the gloom.
Some of the floor tiles would awake,
And silently creep across the room.

For her this had become too much,
She needed someone with whom to talk.
Her and I had become really close,
By means of a mirror on the wall.

While she helped me reconcile with myself,
I helped her recover from her mental fall.
So she honored me with a broken light,
That was casting shadows on the wall.

I love this!  It tied the beginning with the end, and sort of spun things out of proportion in a slow way until you realize just what is going on, and there's no way not to love it!

some of your writing. At first they seem serious (from reading some of them) at the beginning then when i get farther into them some of them have this funny hook or something about them. never mind. i guess they're just not what i anticipated from the beginning

Ive read some of your stuff since you were the first one to post to one of mind. I find your stuff to be eccentric and crazy but good at the same time. But I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or serious at times
