Love lingers in the alleyways And wafts across the streets, And knocks upon my double doors But never does come in. Love finds a home in entranceways And rattles round retreats, And scurries past the faint applause Just two doors down from sin. Ah! Would I love would I but know What love might have in store! For I have fears of heavy chains That jangle in my joy. And I have fears of floods that flow From asking life for more. Silent, I prefer the gains Such tempests would destroy.
