And Then I Walked Home (Again)
The bicycle lock.
It was the bicycle lock
that blocked and shut and
threw us off course.
It was the key.
It was the key
to the bicycle lock
that I left at home that
locked us out.
It was the evening.
It was the evening
when we could have
spoken about the
missed years that
we should unlock.
It was the night.
It was the night
I walked home alone
instead of asking
you to help me
unlock my
bicycle lock.
