Do Not Knock On My Door (2)
Home is where I am happy...
Still. Know that I am not resigned to the idea
Of you...this point in time, even a wee bit.
Listen and listen well: Come to me only
When absolutely (and exhaustively) everything
Possible in the world become impossible,
That it is ethically and physically--
The time, rhyme and reason to leave Home.
Use your key when it is time. Then, and
Only then can I welcome you...
With a willing heart and open arms.
