Door

My heart is not a sieve
letting small pieces of something in.
My heart is a door
if it lets you in
it lets all of you in
whether you are a man
or a woman
or a rat.
(or a job?)

Therefore,
I must experience all of you;
the pleasure
and the hurt
even if I don't want to.

My heart could let nothing in
but then nothing would get out.
