Not a Toy

Knock knock —
Who’s there ?
My heart is broken —
I can hear you laughing —
You’re having fun —
I’m here on my own —
I’m lost — I’m alone —
Can no one hear me ?
Why won’t you let me in ?
I will knock in rhythm —
I will knock in time —
You’re in my head !
You play with my mind !
Why won’t you let me in ?
Why can’t I too have fun ?
Why shut me out
I cry tears — you laugh with joy.
You play with my mind — though it’s a broken toy.
Knock knock let me in —
Let me into my mind
Stop living my life and leaving me behind.
