Empty Doorway

You walk through that door and disappear

It is all an illusion

Now minimalized

Expanding on clear view

Always one step ahead

And now my guard down

You saw me cry

I thought I was all alone

But you were watching

Carefully letting events unfold

Like lily petals

Delicate

And now you see

I quiver in the cool breeze

I look through the empty doorway

Still see your shadow

Wonder where you've gone

And how soon you will return

I'll be dazzled once again

And forget

The illusion

Walk blindly

Into your caress
Without you
My world
Is that empty doorway
