Knock, if you ever come

Inspired by a chat with a friend

Sometimes in relationships people think keeping some distance, giving a relationship a brake may help; with a thought of starting it fresh again. However, the reverse may happen sometimes; since an open heart attracts viewers as an open show attracts audiences.

Simply put, there are probabilities of finding new people that can fill out the gap in such left-open relationships. Which in fact, were supposed to work out through time. Hence, if people allow such things they should also be able to accept the consequence. They should learn to “knock, if they ever come” as i have tried to put it as a principle. 

here goes the thought in poem:

KNOCK, IF YOU EVER COME

For you walked away in silence,

Disappeared in time,

Vanished, like the smell of water,

Short of closing the door,

Making me vulnerable,

Open was my gateway.

     Thus,

Too many walked through

Too many stayed

Quite a few remained

     Yet,

The remained understood

To lock the entry

That was left exposed

    Now,

Closed is my gateway

Secured-entry

   Hence,

If you ever come

If I ever open

Knock!

   So,

 I may wake.
