Damn Temple

by disabledpoetman

Mama always said my body is a temple but if this is a temple then I never want to worship again I was born into this temple with the foundation already cracked The ceilings are caving in The floor boards wail in pain even with the most gentle of steps I reach for the handle of the front door to get out but the hinges crack and break leaving nothing but agony in my wake the widow screen is ripped and the wires are sticking out the glass is either in shards gripping to the windowsill or in a pile on the floor I can’t get out of this damn temple but staying here is killing me Temples are meant for praising God but I only want to curse him for trapping me here I wish I could tear down this place buts its already doing a pretty good job of doing that on its own. Let me out of this damn temple.
