You may have come home to an empty house
but that doesn’t mean you’re all alone.
Someone in this world
thinks of you and
wishes you well.
Someone sees your pain
and wishes
they could hug you tight.
Somewhere right now,
someone hears a laugh
and all they can do
is think of is you.
The curve of your smile
and your warm embrace.
The tiniest beauty mark
that graces your face.
You’re much more
than what lies
behind the closed door.
But it’s all you can see, so you continue to hide.
But somewhere, someone thinks of you.
And every time they do,
they smile a smile,
much bigger then before.
You may not know them yet
or you may, you’ll never know.
You may have crossed paths
along the open road.
There may come a time
when you’ll meet again
but for now, this space
continues to be your own.
Don’t reflect on the emptiness
the solemn
or the loss
instead see this as your time
to become one
with the woman
behind the closed door.
For every piece of life
comes a time and place.
And while this might seem
like the wrong one
it’s just the right space.
A time to connect,
renew and restore.
A time to be one
behind the closed door.
So you might not know him
or maybe you do
but your love won’t be true
if you’re lonely and blue.
So come out of the shadow
and out from your shell and
show us your unbroken,
beautiful self.
