I'm wide open,
Standing stark at your front door,
Like a covered peep hole,
I'm not welcome anymore.
I'm wide open,
Your shadow frame cracks the floor,
But it's drifting away from me,
Scaling back the dinosaur.
Now I'm closed,
Alone in a clothing line,
Thrift stores we used to find,
Our vintage passing for time.
Do you suppose,
Roses are thorny vines,
Grapes don't smell like wine,
You were never the nurturing kind.
