Knock....Knock....Knock...

The past came knocking at my door 
I froze,not knowing what to do 
Should I open to let it in? 
Or prevent my ears from listening, 

My heart jumped to open 
My mind shouted,to stop him 
You're the one who's been harmed 
Why acting so dumb? 

I was stuck in the middle 
Waiting for the right decision 
Part of me wanted to go 
The other part begging to hold, 

Till this moment,I'm standing still 
Can't find words to end my poem 
If only my past could help and say 
The reason of coming back again.
