The Door to Love

Knock on the door or walk away now

The Door to Love

If you seek love,

knock gently on the door of the heart.

No price is asked, just a glance—

not a house of ill-repute,

but a sanctuary

where love endures.

Here, money holds no sway;

nothing sordid transpires.

This is a haven,

a place free from tears,

where love is destined to bloom,

where every moment is cherished.

Pause and reflect

before you choose to step inside,

only the truest hearts are welcome here.

We may have met only once or twice,

our connection, delightful,

but in this house,

you’ll meet my mum and dad.

So don’t wander in

if I’m merely a passing fancy.

I play for keeps, forever;

if you have second thoughts,

know that it’s all clear.

So place your hand upon the knocker,

decide to let go or stay,

for if I am your destiny,

you will surely find your way.

I've been writing poetry since the age of fourteen. With pen in hand, I wander through realms unseen. The pen holds power; ink reveals hidden thoughts. A poet may speak truth or weave a tale. You decide. Let pen and ink capture your mind❤️

    You write a lot - I don't get to read it all but this one I liked - it had a human touch.
