A poem about reverting to a prior emotional state.
A feeling is rising within me
I have known this feeling before
I wonder if anyone can see
Someone has opened a door

It's overtaking me was swift
as in the times of lore
I want to reject the god's cursed gift
Someone has opened a door

I do not welcome this familar stranger
and down to my very core
I can start to feel the building danger
Someone has opened a door

Something inside me is starting to break
like waves upon the shore
then my soul begins to quake
Someone has opened a door

This feeling inside me must take it's leave
as I steadily cross the floor
I give one final forceful heave
And I have shut the door
