The Open Door

The ajar door gave me signs

someone inside, but still wasn't

the emptiness howled, my heart cried

she had left me, but the open door gave me hope.

My sadness, tears failed to percieve

my love,she denied to concur

A dim shadow glittered, fooled me again

my life at the mercy of her steps

Yes she left me.

All wishes granted, still one remained

a hole in my soul, I feared to fill

but the open door gave me hope.

Eyes wandered, now unsure what they searched for

the deafening song of silence

the coolness of the winter floor

the sneering laughter of the walls

elements made me lose my sanity.

Midnight moon gleamed and glanced

eyes closed, I felt the pain

my muted lips did speak,

a speach left unheard

A lifeless carcass lay in the corner

Never so dearly had anyone wanted death.

The mocking wind blew again

closed shut my open door

My legs shivered, my heart froze

She would never return....
