I live in a house of my own making…
There are no doors or no windows…
The floors are bare and the wind rushes up to meet my cold face
There are no chairs in this box…
I’m up in a room with cracks in the ceiling…
But, I live.
The light filters in through the rips in the rooftop
I can’t tell tell which is the rain and which is the teardrop…
I scratch at the plaster, I fall down exhausted
I live
I live in a house of my own making…
I say what I want to say
I sleep here with no shades
I wake up every night
Thinking past every heartbeat….
I live in a house of my own making
You be what you want to be…
I live…
