doorstep

doorstep

it’s part of who you are
he said
remember hello’s, goodbye’s, crazy, surprises
and that late afternoon as she put the key in the door
outside
she remembered, she’d forgotten…
the doorstep fairytale
she smiled
at the pictures on the wall
at him
at his bow
mesmerized by how loved she’s been
you have to go down that road you know
to breakfree
sometimes you have to break everything
and in a broken pile you see nothing is
broken
no endings
there are only new beginnings
transitions
when you think you’re letting go
you’re actually letting in
what are you letting in?
the key was still in the door
no one was there
on the porch
but she smiled
because that means it’s in the mail
she hopped up the stairs
with a fairytale in her heart
the best place for them to be
