fiddling with words.

[katster]

i stand on the threshold.
i want to come in

i can't come in
because the last time we talked
you made me cry
because i'd made you cry

and you were angry with me
for the words i'd said
which only succeeded
in making me cry harder

because I hate pain
hate to cause pain
hate to have pain

so now i stand
on the threshold
wondering
if i'm wanted
anymore

knock knock

[Of course, now, I've got that timeless classic "I hear you knockin' but you can't come in" running through my head. More on stuff like math test latah.]

I let you in once.
You brought me joy, and pain is
Eclipsed. Be welcome.
