She waited on the threshold
Unable to tap at the door
Tap where? No door to behold
Between two hearts’ closed corridors!

She didn’t call out to him loud
May be she wanted dared not
He too could have called her in
Strange! That he couldn’t imagine!

A door open to openness
Would have served out a lot better
Where they could have exited
And entered alike as they liked...
