My Room
I want to stay in my room,
Hidden forever.
Where no one can hurt me.
No one can make me cry.
I wish I could lock my door,
And keep the pain out forever.
Keep out the fear and hate.
But someone always gets in.
Somehow, someone always breaks open my door.
I once was stupid enough to open it.
I opened my door.
And everything rushed in like a tidal wave.
All at once.
It crushed me.
I could barley breath.
But now I'm back in my room,
Holding my hear in two pieces,
I’ve glued it back together before.
I tried tape too, but nothing worked.
It always broke again.
Once I dropped it and everyone
Stepped on it.
The whole world trampled my heart.
It was in so many pieces.
I never really got it back together again.
Now the world is trying to get in my room.
The whole damn world wants in.
But my door is locked.
I have finally learned how to lock the world out.
