Close the door when you leave,
place a barrier between our hearts.
This night
I shall be alone –
without tears, without regret.
Close the door when you leave,
pull it tight
and turn the key.
I shall soon forget -
you and I
were never meant to be.
yeah but in the morning open the door to a brand new day with hope on the horizon. Very bittersweet poem thanks for sharing BB: O)
But watch out Val that person could turn the key and lock you in. You never thought it through! Seriously though a nice poem.
Quite the contrast between this and Dust of Gold you're showing great versatility in the age old theme of He loves me, he loves me not. Point well taken......
An arrow that shoots straight to the heart of the matter. I must say Val this one is short and to the point. Why beat around the bush when it comes to love. If love has died or can no longer flourish why try to bring it back to life? A very distinct and poignant write. Bold and beautiful.
an eye opener f r the many devastated young ones. So true, Val, If it was not meant to be, why remain in the illusion of passion.
Closing the door on a feeling that didn't end up being love.............brilliant write. Not really much else to say, other than that it really is wonderful. -W
