Mind wandering Body traveling Towards the door Twist the key in the lock Anticipation For dogs yipping And jumping At my feet Turn the **** And there's Nothing I know I'm young And have plenty of years to fill houses With my every desire -- A husband Children Dogs Anything -- But that's further down the road Not down this hallway Not behind this door For now, the only thing I am welcomed by As I walk through this doorway Is loneliness

Open House
Mind wandering Body traveling Towards the door Twist the key in the lock Anticipation For dogs yipping And jumping At my feet Turn the **** And there's Nothing I know I'm young And have plenty of years to fill houses With my every desire -- A husband Children Dogs Anything -- But that's further down the road Not down this hallway Not behind this door For now, the only thing I am welcomed by As I walk through this doorway Is loneliness
