The Doorway (JPB)

I stand in the doorway 
seeing things I don’t want to see 
Events that will take you from me 

I stand in the doorway  
Knowing I can do nothing
My power diminished 

I stand in the doorway 
Alone, unsheltered, anguished 
Willing a change of events 

I stand in the doorway 
Watching and waiting 
Hoping for intervention

I stand in the doorway 
And watch you leave 
For the last time
