Where once was a door, is no longer there
Only bricks, and cracks, filled the space
I seem to remember, he, who lived here
Though I cannot, really, remember his face
Walking closer, I had to examine the wall
I really wished I weren’t so nearsighted
I, somehow, knew this wouldn’t be good
Then it hit me, twas a love, unrequited
In the blink of an eye, it had happened
The door that once was, had returned
He pulled me through, no way to go back
Tis what happens, when a lover is spurned
January Writing Prompt – Slipping between the seams, there was no turning back – Day 29/31
