LOCKOUT

I went to the door

Seeking love

I knew dwelt within.

It was locked.

Suddenly, I was a child,

Lost and lonely,

Though I knew all would be well

Soon.

 

I came to your heart

Seeking love

I knew dwelt within.

You had closed all doors.

Suddenly, I was old,

Lost and lonely,

Knowing it would be so

Forever.
