A Knock

Last night I was home, alone,
And there was a knocking at the door.
I went to open it
But no, I was mistaken,
it was only my heart.

Later, I was sitting with a cup of tea,
And there was again a pounding in my chest
(I went to open it)
But no, I was mistaken,
it was only the thunder.

This world is pulsing beating pounding,
wanting to be loosed heard unleashed,
And I with it.
