~


Framed by affections,

unlocked, waiting...

weathered of vibrant

thoughts and dead bolt

delusions


A portal of desperate

desires and relinquished

pain, for the light

through my cracks and crevices

now shines


My heart is hinged,

eternally,

by brass pins of endless dreams,

tightly fitting into

the perfect grooves of

your love


Twist with simple ease

my handle, dull and waiting

for the sheen of you

ever bright, glowing

to polish me,

to make me

new


Open me,

swing me freely,

so smoothly I move

allowing the morning breeze to sift

beyond peep hole shadows

creating a passage

so that I may

walk so deeply

into you
