I wasn't sure how to feel about this until the last two lines that tied the whole poem together. I was apprehensive at the beginning for fear of lack of direction, but, like I said, the final two lines secured this one. Good job.

i disagree with the lack of direction in the beginning..i was aware of the feelings and emotions thorughout this whole write..and it was great. there is one thing ..a simple mistake that i catch myself making sometimes..in the beginning you used the word "theirs" and i think the word you mean to use was "theres" ..i use the wrong there, their all the time...lol..but this was an amazing write from start to finish...i love the analogy of the room...nice job.

wow... that was really sad, yet very powerful. i'm sorry you are going through this pain and i wish i could take away some of it... for there used to be a room with me, but i locked the door to it. if you every need to talk, i'm a PM away. sorry about the pain, but this was an excellent write and i enjoyed reading it from the beginning, thanks for sharing. and keep up the great work!
