I am a house.
I am your house.
You grew up within my walls
I knew every secret every lie
You could examine the world through my eye.
Then one night I heard the gun shot
It rattled my walls but I kept you safe inside
I protected you as long as I could
Then you learned the truth.
You left
You didn’t want to see me
I hated it you stayed away for days
You made me feel like it was my fault.
It wasn’t me you hated but someone who once lived inside me.

This is heartbreaking and beautiful, Threasa. That last line is superb!
this poem is very addicting, it paints a clear picture and awsome (but sad, which isnt bad)story in my head.i love the way you arrange your words.
This poem makes me sad cause it about true things.
I love it! An unexpected twist at the second stanza. Keep it up!
