I want the key
But can't reach it
Want to know it all
Whatmakesyouticklivebreathescream
But you're closed
Childhood left you paralyzed
Maybe, if I
work
search
clean debris
then
I'd find the lock
and I could try
the key
that I found in the dust
that dark corner, did you know?
I actually found it
But I'm so mired
So stuck in convention
So tired
And scared, because
What if I used the key and got inside and then
you didn't want me there?
This is a magpie tale. Please check it out. Amazing writers out there.

well done.
beautiful magpie!
That seems to be the chance we have to take, isn't it. Nicely done!
The end was so poignant. Your poems are inspirational.
Oh ... how much we risk when it comes to affairs of our hearts! I loved your Magpie.
that last question is tricky and love can be crazt...but how much do you believe in it and are you willing to put in...
Oh boy, I sure do identify with this. Beautiful and thoughtful.
Beautifully written. Guess what? We never know until we take risks.
Beautiful. Risks. Change. All so overwhelming sometimes.
very nice...some times we need to take the risk though, right? :)
Thanks for that.
Use the key, get inside.
Wow! This is quite brilliant! Wonderful poem. Tina the Red Dress prompt this week is poetry, so I do hope you will link up and have a go.
on my way to magpie! She should at least award you with a cookie for that poem!
sometimes you just have to make that leap!
Nice Magpie
Sooner or later you just have to see if the key works or move on. Can't have a key chain with unused keys.
Very nice.
My favorite line? ...what makes you

Niiiiiiiice!
Childhood does leave so many of us paralyzed. Great Magpie! (thanks so much for your generous comment over at WM)
So very good! And the end is so true!
Oh, yes, there is that fear! Surely. Very nice!
