Keep out!
Behold I stand at your door and knock
Heart closed shut
Closing out the pain
Double locked
Behold I stand at your door and knock
I close you out barricading myself from the threat of love
Breathe afresh of life renewed
Lifeless
Dullness
Desperation
See I am faded blackened rotting from a lifetime of darkness
Behold I stand at your door and knock
In a list
