The Karmic Door Mat
The Karmic Door Mat
Karma dictates that one should get what they give.
So I gave my heart away.
But it was returned to me broken.
Then I presented my love like a gift....
But it was sent back; wrapped and unopened.
Last, and most certainly least, my soul was offered like a candle piercing the night.
But the flame was left flickering, and it no longer burned bright.
And so it was with great clarity and wisdom that I recognized my place in the universe.
In the fabric of life, I am the loose thread that is plucked and discarded.
I am the loyal dog that lies at your feet that is no longer wanted.
So come far and come wide, and take anything of mine that you desire to keep.
And on your way out, be sure to wipe your feet,
on the Karmic door mat
that is me.
