Let Me In

Let Me In

The mind's door is locked,
yet here I stand
knocking...no, banging
on another.

"Let me in?"
My voice slips out
nervously calm on a line but thin,
"I'm a good listener and no short of helpful when it comes to life and advice."
Speaking relentless in more of a confident tone I begin,
to hear me repeat myself, "Please....let me in!"

Clamoring tumblers 
of the locks opening chore,
still.....no answer 
from a certain sought someone 
behind this fortress door.

A certain someone who wishes then in my head yells, "Go away!"
Here to stand with help in hand
my gentle reply, "For I just came
today."
Came, as fast as raven's wings soar
face to face with insipid psychosis, hoping mails received in slot therefore....opening the door.

For rarely, truly one thus far has much patience wrapping,
tapping on solid stone, fear intrepid, that really I might be all alone;
Nobody's bothered knocking, when no light presently places anybody home, and the voice heard so far off but thin.......subconscious answering on the outs, while I'm tapping, wrapping, knocking from within.

Hi Devon   Great write  My interpretation for this write 
is he is there for people who need his
help but when he needs help theres no one there
for him, even though he needs help he keeps it all locked within
driving him mad but he wont ask great just my thoughts :-)
great imaginary"as fast as ravens wings soar"
I really enjoyed this  
Best wishes Debs

I can definitely see that Deb and thank you. That rqven line was supposed to stick to my Poe theme hehe and keep it eerie. People have a lot of problems with those types of things too. Bottling up feelings till theres almost no release to exploding. I find strangers who will lend an ear make great people to vent too or just writing. Peace to you.
