always hanging never standing
not fully open not fully closed
left at the hinges that rust wore down
a screw lays forgotten on the ground
peeling paint adorns wood
full of inhabitants not so friendly
unfinished and waiting
for i am one screw short
to be a door

haha this was a bit whimsical.
good write; i enjoyed reading it. -
this is.... interesting. I think it was a bit off the prompt of the lyrics, but relevant to doors. I like how it could also be interpreted as someone's state of mind, like not completely here or there. I think "full of inhabitants not so friendly" could have been better written, but overall it's a good poem. good luck in the contest!
