Thin Walls Poem by Jay Aguiniga

Through the thin walls,
I hear,
Slamming doors, broken lies
Muffled anguished cries.
She’s worthy of,
much, much more.
Screaming in my mind,
You don’t know a thing about love,
I want to save you.
The need to protect,
Please let me reach into,
To save you,
From all this neglect.
Screaming in my mind,
Please, can’t one just be kind.
Take my arm,
Let me take you from harm.


Through the thin walls….
I hear,
Slamming doors, broken lies
Muffled anguished cries,
They are worthy of
Much, much more.
You both don’t know a thing about love,
I want to save you
The need to protect.
Please let me reach into,
Save you from all this neglect
Screaming in my mind,
Please, can’t you both just be kind.
Take my arm,
Let me take you from harm.

Through the thin walls….
I hear,
Slamming doors, , broken lies
Muffled anguished cries.
She says… I’m worthy of,
Much, much more.
I’m tired of screaming in my mind,
You don’t know a thing about love,
I cant save you.
I have them to protect,
Please don’t reach into,
I don’t love you,
I must save us from this neglect
I’m tired of screaming in my mind,
Please why, couldn’t you have been kind?
Let go of my arm,
I must take them from this harm……..
