Why Would You Want To Open Your Door? Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Why would I want to be a part of your life,
Right now?
When you had...
Never been around to give me reason.

And,
Why would I want to be a part of your life,
Right now?
When gone is that season.

And why,
Would I try now...
When I've been denied,
To love you...
Then.

And why,
Would you want to open your door?
When you said never see you,
Again.
Or anymore!

I remember then...
Loving you was all I wanted.
When I thought you wanted love too,
For you to begin.

I remember then...
When my nights and days were haunted,
Wanting just to have you,
As my only friend...
To depend on!

And why,
Would I try now...
When I've been denied,
To love you...
Then.

And why,
Would you want to open your door?
When you said never see you,
Again.
Or anymore.

Why would I want to be a part of your life,
Right now?
When you had...
Never been around to give me reason.

And why,
Would I try now...
When I've been denied,
To love you...
Then.

And why,
Would you want to open your door?
When you said never see you,
Again.
Or...
Anymore!
