revolving door... a poem

revolving door

my emotions are clear glass
push my door 
I'll take you for a ride
slow and steady
not automatic

hands pressed, you're in control
leaving fingerprints
smudges of your words
we go 'round and 'round
you let no one else enter

I stopped to let you in
I tried to keep us moving
you slipped right out, mid-spin
I'm left to pirouette alone
until you decide to slide
back in again.


I just keep spinning.
