Neighbor

by la-toya-martin

You knock and knock But I can’t let you in My home is unclean There's mountains of clutter from head to toe I constantly stand in filth and dust I hear you knocking But I'm too ashamed to let you in Why do you continue to knock? Why don't you believe no one's home? Aren’t you tired? You have stood there for so long So I finally cleaned my cluttered home And I answered my door And there stood Jesus Patiently waiting for me to let him in -LaToya Martin
