you

I had closed the door upon my heart,
And wouldn't let anyone in.
I had trusted and loved only to be hurt,
But, that would never happen again.

I locked the door and tossed the key,
As hard, and as far as I could.
Love would never enter there again,
My heart was closed for good.

Then you came into my life
And made me change my mind,
Just when I thought that tiny key
was impossible to find.

That's when you held out your hand,
And proved to me I was wrong.
Inside your palm was the key to my heart,
You had it all along.
