WHEN A WOMAN STANDS IN THE DOORWAY

WHEN A WOMAN STANDS IN THE DOORWAY


If a woman stands in her doorway


That can mean any number of things


She might be guarding the entrance to her home


Preventing entry by an unwelcome visitor


She might be waiting for the first glimpse


Of a beloved person she is eager to see


She might be surveying her surroundings


Out of natural curiosity or concern for something


That got her attention outside the house


She could be getting a breath of fresh air 


From a house filled with smoke or steam


Or unrest


When a woman stands in the doorway


It can mean many things


But if she looks at the horizon and sighs


She is considering leaving a situation 


She considers irredeemable


Her mind has already flown out the door


And into the future
