What is this life?

Its dark

There's no way out

What is this life?

What is this about?


Walls so close

I can barely breathe

What is this life?

There's something under my feet


I scream silent screams

There is no sound

What is this life?

There is nothing 'round


I reach out and touch 

It seems kind of sharp

What is this life?

As I step on the tarp


I reach with my left hand

It starts to throb

What is this life?

As i grab the knob


With one twist

It opens up

What is this life?

Oh, its just a door

What is this life?

The suspense throughout the poem held the reader's interest, I think the poem could have a better, more meaningfull ending; but as you say "it's only a door"- very enticing are doors a bit like pandora's box, whatever next? Wonderfull work here cutietutie22's.
