The door clicked and I was alone

I still sat at the door, even though I knew no one was going to come through.

Exasperated, isolated, and gloomy

The apartment was dark and silent.

I whined for hours

I slept when I wasn't running towards the door when I heard voices.

Then came night fall

And it felt like she was never going to come back,

But the door clicked and the **** turned;

I ran for the door, yelling in pure joy.

And she came in with a smile like sunshine,

I knew she would leave again tomorrow, and the day after that,

But seeing her never got any less exciting.
