the door

i heard you hollering so i turned off the vacuum and casually walked to your room and stuck my head in your door to make sure it wasn't because i was keeping you awake. i should have closed your door before i turned the damn thing on but i just assumed you were awake. the room was dark and you were pointing at the closet door screaming that something was inside of it. CLOSE IT CLOSE IT JESUS CHRIST CLOSE THE DOOR. i said your name and you looked at me and didn't know who i was and you threw a glass at the door that was slightly open that held all your clothes. glass shattered and milk went everywhere. i thought what the fuk ? i walked up to your bed and said okay okay and you didn't glance my way your eyes were being held captive by whatever was in the closet. i didn't have time to scold you for the mess cause i saw terror in your eyes. i rushed over and closed the door and grabbed the handle and tried to pull it open and said there it's closed see it ain't going to open. but you were already sleeping
