When love knocks,
Do not answer the door
The place is still a mess from her last visit and you haven’t had time to clean
She promised to help but disappeared instead
When love rings the doorbell,
Lock the deadbolt
The pain of her leaving can never exist if you never let her in
Time may heal wounds, but not scars
When love peeks in the window to see if you’re home,
Close the curtains
Ignore her promises
That she doesn’t care what you look like
That she doesn’t care about your past
That this time will be different
That this time, she’s here to stay
When love arrives,
Remind her that she’s the one who left
And you’ve changed the lock
