[00:24.98]The sign above the door says no solicitors,
[00:29.71]Whereas the vines along the wall scream no visitors at all;
[00:33.21]Family, friend, stranger or otherwise.
[00:35.92]I never came in through the front door anyway though
[00:38.07]And I'd been here a million times.
[00:39.94]I'd lived a secret, favorite life within this house
[00:42.38]And I'd done my best to hide it.
[00:43.88]Loved it deeply, called it home
[00:45.99]But never ever dreamed I'd die inside it.
[00:47.97]I'd come in through the window,
[00:49.76]Pried it open,
[00:50.39]Slipped in gently and drank here,
[00:52.19]Loved here and slept here.
[00:53.86]And when it came time to leave,
[00:55.04]I thought it best to leave the way I came
[00:56.99]But the window always stuck in odd ways when I tried to exit through it.
[01:01.04]It asked me questions.
[01:03.15]"If the eyes are the window to the soul,
[01:05.20]Why do you only feel alive when they are closed?"
[01:07.84]And then something else took hold
[01:10.05]And the window broke.
[01:11.53]The glass went only inches into my skin but only inches was enough.
[01:17.56]And once the guilt has had its fill,
[01:21.08]Only then will the animals eat me as well.
