Door-to-door Salesman

Folder: 
Missing Him

Love knocked but I didn’t answer

He looked much too suspicious to me

Like he intended to cause me harm

So I put my guard up, bolted my door

And hoped you would leave me alone.



I didn’t want this jovial salesperson

Dictating to me that he had the solution

To my problems, the cure to my troubles.

He was sorely mistaken when he thought

That he knew exactly what I needed.



After all, I already had everything I needed

So he skipped along to the next home.

And I watched jealously as his toothy grin

Was passed on to my neighbor who knew

That he had what she was looking for.
