the phantom sound of a door closing behind you that hasn't actually shut yet

The Door Was Never Locked

The sun is up, but your ears are still tuned to the slam of a door that never actually closed. You woke up carrying the weight of an ending that exists only in your memory.

The light is already in the room, spilling across the floor, proving that the exit was an illusion. You are still inside.

The house has not locked you out; you are just standing in the hallway, convinced you are already gone. Look at the dawn.

It does not care about the noise you heard in the night. It only knows how to fill the space you are standing in right now.

The door is open. The light is waiting for you to turn around and see that you never left.
