I opened the Door to let you in
And, somehow, unwittingly,
I let you out.
So I've batten’d my windows and doors,
clos’d them and bar’d them infinitely
definitely obstinately.
The haunted passage is quiet’d,
Opportunity blocked, blinded
And I am now deafen’d
E’er N’er to care again.
Bye...
Out the door walked Hope.
Bye...
Out the window went Desire.
Bewildered,
I turn’d ‘round and found
What we left was
Pity and Foolishness.
So I kicked them out too.
Bye.
