I believe that the eyes
truly are the windows to the soul
and I don't want you looking in.
I'm going to buy blackout curtains
glue them shut from your view,
take the broken wood
from what's leftover of my resolve,
patch it together,
board up the windows,
and paint on it
"VACANT"
because there's nothing left
I want anyone to see.
Using the bricks from the crumbling walls
falling down inside my mind
I'll cement it all closed
and put up the sign:
"UNINHABITABLE"
