Darkness

                   I keep the door closed
my hands crack against the fault line
 
it breaks like the spine of a book
folding back spilling letters out
 
the pages rain slowly slipping
under the rug
 
I wonder if the door could open
without me were I to wait
 
there isn't anything left inside
the sound of breath that are not mine
 
the growing distance between myself and the cold
 
a window pane peering behind its own eyes
sees nothing but the light
