As the skies darkened with each passing moment I ran inside A place to hide Slammed the door shut Soon after the pounding began I stood there braced against the entrance The door being ripped apart but not being budged I go to the place where I can get peace of mind The longer I stand there, the more the pounding ceases to be heard. Soon it stops I'm free from the emotions and thoughts chasing after me Left with a numbness How can I ever leave this place now? If I let them in I'll surly be torn apart If I wish to face them...how do I start?
