Keys To Your Safes

Your mouth is closed and I know it is not empty

I search for the key or combination to set words free

Another day ends and failure to touch that spot

Another prayer begins that wishes for the roots would not rot

Your mind is locked and I am on the outside alone

I put my coat and gloves it’s cold in this home

Another season passes though it is as empty as the last

Another reason scratched off my list looking to the past

Your heart is soldered so no one can enter

I prepare for a perpetual freezing winter

Another plea that the sun will return once again

Another knee bowed to pray for a warm spring rain

I will continue to dig to discover the reason why

Research to see how to prevent this tree’s plight

I will continue to pray and pursue until time ends

Until you are completely opened
