Preparing for the tea party, taking out the good china, that fragrant tea I ordered last week, pouring the hot water, taking the pastries out, finger sandwiches , decorating table, placing everything exactly where it belongs.
A guest will come, that unknown stranger, I know, my 6th sense tells me so
Waiting ………
Knock on the door , silence ….
Knock again …. but I am afraid to open the door
afraid to let someone come in , what if ? ? so many questions
afraid to open the door of my heart
afraid to have it broken
I can’t ….
but I want to
clock is ticking …. I peak outside
I see someone sitting on stairs, facing the other way
finally I open the door, that person turns around with a smile , get up, steps in
Close the door behind
Capturing my heartbeat
and
I let go handing over the key
