POEM STARTER
'The key they'd given me still fit the lock, but the house no longer felt like home'
Write a poem which closes with this line.
Hollow Walls
The walls in this house are hollow
I can still feel the pain
The walls closing in on me
On that fateful day
This house was no longer a home
But merely a box with walls
The walls in this house are hollow
You left me to suffer
Struggle
Fight for my self
But I thrived
You wanted me back
Said you didn’t mean it
That it wasn’t you
That you wouldn’t do that to me
That I am remembering wrong
But I know
The walls in this house are hollow
I can hear every little step
The creaks
The lies
The deception
The pain…
I kept the house key…
The key you had given me
It still fits…
But this house no longer felt like home
