If you let me in

I will open

The house

In your heart

That has been

Locked shut.

Open the windows

Wide, and let

The light in

Where, before,

There was only

Darkness.

I will plant

Little trees

In your garden

And watch

As the flowers

Bloom.

I will wash

The floorboards

Where your sorrows

Have gathered

Like dust

And hang

Curtains of love

In all your windows.

I will turn

Your house

Into a home

If only you’d

Let me in.
