Skeleton Key Poem by Fauxcroft Wade

I felt love enter me

In its hand a skeleton key,

It opened my heart

part by part,

and as I felt each key turn

I felt myself yearn,

To feel more now

Than I did back then.



Opening wide for love to flow in,

I felt the emotions and feelings begin,

Opening wide for love to flow in,

I felt the key opening.



I felt the mechanisms

click into place,

bit by bit

changing my state,

from numb to alive

as it defined my life,

as the key unlocked my heart

I was surprised.



Opening wide for love to flow in,

I felt the emotions and feelings begin,

Opening wide for love to flow in,

I felt the key opening.
