The Closed Gate

I was born to be a lover, yet became a name left behind.
I welcomed every spark, but never peace of mind.

So I closed the gate and stayed inside,
hiding all the parts I used to leave open wide.

I built a life from quiet air and afternoon light,
convinced that love belonged in someone else's sight.

Then a question found me where I stood—
if I was born to be a lover, why not love myself for good? ???
