Invitation

Tried to unfold creases and crevasses that
You've enveloped and sealed with hot wax
Spilled from vanilla scented candles

You invited me, but won't let me in

Tried to pry with the edge of my finger's nail
Wanting to slice through to what you've enclosed

To reach you

Paper thin cut wrapped around my finger's tip
Quick sharp pain
It did not bleed

You've invited me
I'm here
Open to your thoughts

You've invited me
I'm here
Wanting to hear you

You've invited me
I'm here
Needing to know you

You've invited me
I'm here...

Please let me in
Please let me in
Please let me in
