Open Door

love, an open door
a yearning we long for
no one could give you more
I showed you this before

it's really not that hard
to sweep away the shards
my key removes the bars
and heals all the old scars

truth a flame that burns
as you await your turn
each time a lesson learned
as love slowly returns
