Open my soul,
Throw out the key...
Leave it exposed,
Let it be free...

Open your eyes,
See what you'll find...
I assure you it's something,
you won't leave behind...

Give it no time,
or limits in space ...
My soul is much more
than you'll ever expect...

Open the lock,
and I'll hold the door...
to the place where I begin,
and you seem to unfold...

ac...I like the idea and the poem has a good cadence to it. I would like it more if the rymes in the last two stanzas were a little closer (space/expect, door/unfold). I am saying that to help, not criticize. Feel free to tell me to mind my own business, if you want.

I've said this myself sometimes. Unfortunately they never listen. Hope you have better luck.

No, Balladeer, i appreciate the feedback, especially from you, I've read your work and I'm still in awe. Regardless, you're right, i'm usually really partial to the rhythm of what i write but it just flowed that way and i let it slip that time...

lovely contend...too many close-minded people in the world today, afraid to open up to another

I couldn't agree with you more...i wish more people would realize that it's when we let go and open up freely that we'll be able to find some common ground...
