The Metaphorical Doors

by Kane Burden   Jun 19, 2005


We confine ourselves behind them
welcome guest's through them
or leave them a jar.
They reveal our personality
they keep you at bay
they stand for our society
they tend to dismay.
we live the simple life
but are haunted by the past
forever conscious
of the missed time we should have grasped.
We are mammals
and live amongst nature
but tend to adventure
further then ventured.
Animals mark their territory
we with our doors
conquering new territory and defending whats yours.
"We shall never surrender"
our imperialistic views
for the love that defends us
is built and not used.
Love is a construction site
privately owned
and we two shall share it
and make it our home.

    I liked this poem, and as usual its brilliant however, i dont think the last few lines fit well with it. Maybe you could have phrased it a little differently however, it would be better without those lines on this particular poem. But great job!

    It's really good, but the last 4 lines don't really seem to fit...It's like you have two ideas and they aren't quite meshing right, maybe a little transition thingy? Well, don't mind me, I'm not that great so, yeah!
