The corner of my house

The corner of my house

The house I own is made from onyx stone.
I go in where I'm left alone.

My darken corner waits for me.
I lay down just to breathe.

I fade in with the black not trying to get back.
I like the solitude even if doesn't make me closer to you.

The memories of you I try to elude.
I'm in a subdued state just looking at the wall.

I lay still my body sprawled like a thrown rag doll.
I just blankly stare into space.
Just tracing the outline of your face.

I just lay here in the corner to save my sanity ever since you left me.

the overall emotions of this poem are very dark colored and i like that. the ending went a little blank canvased to me, but i still enjoyed the read

you are off to a very good start! reminds me of myself at your age. you obviously are a deep thinker and know how to express your thoughts and feelings- keep up the great work.

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
