    Poem Commentary

    inspired by Halestorms song In Your Room

    in your room

     let down your walls
    open up your doors
    don't shut me out
    let me in your room

    show me the blade
    you used to slice your wrists
    show me the knife
    your friend committed suicide with

    show me those pictures of your dad
    show me where you write your lyrics
    show me where you escape reality
    show me the holes in the wall

    let me in your room
    I'll let you in mine

    I'll show you my closet
    where I would escape the world
    I'll show all the hurtful words
    I wrote about myself

    I'll show you the blades
    I cut myself with
    dried blood still lingering on it
    and the tissues
    I cleaned my wounds with

    I'll show you all my scars
    the ones on my wrist and hips
    even the marks
    where I dug my nails

    I'll show you my journal
    and my sketchbook

    I'll let you in my room
    if you let me in yours

    My old best friend and I were very close - this poem describes us well. I though he was letting me into his room...until he got back into dope and screwed some other girl... it took me years until I realized how precious life is. The depressing time still lingers, but I can make it through each day-one at a time. Very well written :) -Nikkie Rae

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
