The Door Slams

The echo awakens the dead My shaking body moves for a closer look The grain on the solid door is unique Indentations appear deep in the fiber Broken fingernails and wood slivers together on the floor There is no handle I hear a voice, but nothing is said to me I am alone Locked in a room with exit signs everywhere Only one door With no way out Please open it from the outside
