No longer

i close the door

on you

on your sadness 

on your words

i close the door

to your professions

to your promises

to your apologies 

i close the door

on the thoughts

on the voices

on the fears

i close the door

to the heaviness

to the walls built

to the brokenness 

i close the door

on my self sabotage 

on the guilt I store 

on feeling responsible for you 

& the destruction

i am not yours

i am me

i no longer am controlled by the strings of the puppeteer

I am slamming the door

there is no longer a key…
