Come on in

all you need to do is; turning the key

the door will creak and the hinges are rusty

but the wood is all solid

 

Come on in

all you need to do is; cross the threshold

with your tender heart in your hand, ready

this is the password

 

Come on in

all you need is to whisper my

name the one thing that makes you, you

will be accepted

 

Come on in

all you need is to bring your love

I might bleed on the floor and I might laugh

but I am yours forever

 

Come on in

all you need to do is; pick up the

pieces and put me back together the way

I was made to be

 

 

You can do what I cannot:

unclinch my fingers; 

unwind my tightly wound clock 

 

 

Your voice is the gentle soundtrack to late afternoons,

rose tinted evenings,

it replaces my urgency with calm

 

 

Later I will paint water colors on your back

because 

it is the only canvas that inspires me

 

because

yours is the world I want to live in.
