The Rooms of My Mind

The Rooms of My Mind - doors, alone, sadness, suicide

When I felt alone, there I went,

Fell into the labyrinth of my mind.


The door I found first

Looked burnt and abandoned.

Betrayal waited for me behind that door,

And so I kept going.


The next door was

A cold, metal door, welded shut.

In here were the memories I locked away,

Even from myself.

And so I kept going.


The next door was

Ominous and dark.

This held my emotions,

Keeping them out of my way,

So I kept going.


At last I reached a door,

Warm to the touch,

a light emanating from it.

I opened the door to the faces

Of all my loved ones smiling at me.


A I saw their warm smiles,

I fell to the ground,

Dropping the knife.


I couldn’t do it,

Not with them smiling so hopefully...
