Secret Door to my Heart

You had the key, formed and fashioned from the love we shared. It was your secret entrance, your hidden garden was locked behind doors only you could access. It was a small key, slightly tarnished, but it still worked. It still gave you access to the most tender place on my soul... my heart.

You used it tonight... for the last time. The lock is now broken, shattered... the door forever barred and broken. You don't have permission to even try... ever again.

I wish you hadn't used it... You could have kept it, hidden amongst the treasures of our lost love. But you chose to use it... to make a point? Perhaps... But it's gone now...

Like the whispers of the wind, that path is now lost... Forever closed... Sadness lies in its place. Forever, and never again. Guarded by the sentinels of sanity and reason.

My heart is closed for business...
