That Knock

With each knock on the door

The story changes

Behind it could be

Your long-lost child

Who ran away from that same door

Years ago

Even if it feels like

A memory from yesterday

  1. What a deeply moving and evocative piece β€” brief in form yet immense in emotional resonance. πŸŒ™

    Your poem captures the quiet ache of time, loss, and the fragile hope that lingers behind every familiar sound β€” a knock on the door. The imagery of the β€œlong-lost child” returning transforms the ordinary into something sacred, turning a simple moment into a portal of memory and longing.
