Did you look deep inside,
Did you open the door,
COme inside?
Did your eyes finally open,
Then realize,
Where you were?
Did it finally dawn on you?
Did you envision from the start,
Was there any compromise,
In any given time?
For one brief second,
Don't you feel the least bit faint?
Don't you hesitate,
Feel somewhat emancipated?
How does it feel,
To finally realize,
That the door you just opened,
Leads to your heart.

Ah, that secret entrance!  So many are afraid to open it, let alone enter...
Really enjoyed this!

Sven your so right, the hardest thing sometimes is to open our own hearts, to often were worrying about the other person, not realizing it may be ourselves,
Laryalee, the heart sometimes has like this real heavy door but once opened, It makes those emotions appear which need to if love ever is to shine.

RoseBud~
Don't know why but it brought to mind
an old, old song line -
'I hear you knocking, but you can't come in.'

Sometimes we are so busy worrying about how others are going to get in - we forget that we must first open the door.

Nicely written.
