The Locked Door
You shut the door and did no more.
What did I do to you?
Why won't you tell why all's not well
And why we are now through?
I have not changed, so it is strange
That you have walked away.
You did not share why you don't care
And what I did that day!
Please let me know and I will go,
If that will help you be
More happy when I'm gone and then
You will be rid of me!
