Goodbye Sad Door (Free verse) by woodstock20000
I watch him
he is an iron door
held tight
though which silver slivers of starlight
peek
like tiny flames through a
sieve of solitude
he opened it a crack once
with a small gesture
of... something
love,
or like,
or hope... of somesort
but closed it up again
before I could ever realize
how...
sad
it all was
and so I continue to
knock
uselessly
at the iron door
but sadly
he has eaten the key
and I shall never know his
starlight
again.
