With Flowers

A well intentioned gift.....

By Shannon FeltnerPublished 8 months ago 1 min read

I am standing

your door

How long have

I been here?

Do you know

that I am here?

Do you know

even care?

I do and I’ll

wait all night

It is a blissful

and agonizing thing

I have everything

that makes it

alright

Will you answer

the door please?

Will you let

me into your heart?

You are in my

mind

I think its

only fair

Come now

to the door

I’ll not leave

these flowers

here

They would wither

without your beauty

I’m starting to

look like a fool

Torment me awhile

then

I’ll be here

waiting

You cannot avoid

me

There’s only one

door

I’m standing at

it

And you will

open it soon
