The Door

by amoswonder - Leo

Do you not know who i am
Let me in I cry
Deeply i hear you sigh
Maybe someday I'll let you in
The heat and flames i can feel from outside
Stress, worries, screaming, pain
Soothe me and fill me
Soothe me and fill me
Silence i hear but of a slowing heart
A lonely soul in this world i once did know
The feeling you have i whisper once more
A cold breeze comes from the crack of the door
Hatred and malice a heart of stone
This is the last time I warn
The gatekeeper yells just leave him alone
Saddened with tears in my eyes
I thought once more about it all
For i died on a cross with nails through my wrists and feet
Why do people ignore the love that i gave
If only they could know that agony and pain
For i died so that all my have eternal life 
My love is forever even through this world of strife
If only he unlocked the keys to his home
A joy he could have only known

Reason for writing:

    For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whoever believeth in Him shall not die but shall have eternal life. John 3:16
