let the builder know

under this grey plasterboard sky
in order to accomplish the designated doom
 in the house next door they decided
to knock down a wall

the house where I was living as all the others around
  rested upon the house aside

everyone, including the ones who loved me and the ones I loved
 told that I had to build my new walls  leaning on house next door

I did not answer at all
I left and went outside in the cold
looking for a life without prefab and guaranteed walls

 I do not regret that choice neither my doom
perhaps that of not having answered at that time with the right tone
yes I do now
since to them I was gone
for good
alone
