unopened



I have a door in my mind
ever closed and ever unopened
it's big and it's heavy
with black-metal fittings
chains and shackles binds it
and the handle is spiked
and on fire

I don't know what's inside
but I hear growling at night
screams and shrieks
heavy breaths and a voice I cannot place

I know it'll have to remain closed
I wouldn't dare otherwise

but it's calling me
asking... please... let me open
I hear it's whispers as though it was mine
but I always push it back and deep inside
I bind it

shut it out

and I forget... for years sometimes
but it always comes back
with  more and more resolve each time

I wonder why...
