Knock-Knock

Greetings everyone, from Artsieladie!

The scariest thing in life can be
Following our heart, no guarantee,
What may happen, joy or pain,
With all to lose or much to gain.
Uncharted waters, a mystery,
Can bring us joy or misery,
But we can't know what could be,
If we let our fears referee.
In life there's always risks to take,
But with our heart want no mistake
For a wounded heart is pain to feel
And so extremely hard to heal.

"Knock, Knock"

*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear.
Dear sweet Heart 'tis Love I bear,
The deepest kind, indeed is rare.
Open your door please, I beg of you,
For the Gift of Love, oh so true,
Is yours to keep, yours to hold,
Forever young, never old."


*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear.
I've traveled far from distant shore
To be standing here before your door.
Your Lamp of Love so brightly burning
Led my heart to its impatient yearning.
My fear is great, but greater still,
Is my heart's desire, Love and will."


*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear.
What I wear upon my sleeve,
Evident to prove, not deceive,
Unwrapped, unhidden, with no shame,
See inscribed your given name.
This special delivery I must make.
A no from you I cannot take."


*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear."


Just a crack, opens the door,
Then hesitation to self explore.
Who is this who does descend,
A foe to fear or Loving friend?
Some time passes to process thought,
To take a chance or better naught.


*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear.
I come to you, your tender place,
With fear of rejection on my face.
Tears of joy or tears of pain,
All to lose or all to gain,
Will there be either, or,
As here I stand at your door?"


*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear.
My own heart is pounding fast,
A new future or repeat of past,
Panicked, wondering, intensely shy,
Asking self, have come, should I?
To turn and run, it's much too late,
For your answer I must wait."


*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear.
Before your door, here I stand,
My anxious heart now in hand.
Through the crack, your warmth I feel.
A glimpse of Love by chance I steal.
The beating of your heart, its vibration,
Beats with mine, extreme sensation."


*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear.
Each passing moment is more intense.
Please don't keep me in suspense.
To you my Love I extend and give,
My heart in yours wants to live
And yours in mine, our hearts connected,
All others forsaking and thus rejected."


*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear.
Both our hearts have wounded been.
Neither wants to be thus again,
But can we afford to pass Love by?
Shouldn't we once more give Love a try?
Our Love could be the Love unending,
Sublime, surreal, for always transcending."


*Knock, Knock*
"May I come in, enter here?
Let me in, please my dear."


Your door now opening, widely more,
Your fragrance of Love I'm longing for
Is drifting outward, me, surrounding,
Elated with joy, my heart pounding.
Before my tear filled eyes you stand,
Reaching out for my trembling hand.


*Click, Click*
The door closes with the sound behind,
As within your heart, myself I find.
Inside at last, in your arms so tight,
My world is suddenly, perfectly right.
At last I feel I'm where I've belonged
In the arms of the one for whom I've longed.
I've traveled far, following my heart,
But distance can't keep Love apart.
