The Difference is the Front Door/poem

The Difference is the Front Door

Never invite cops and/or vampires through your door's thresh-hold
It gives them the opportunity to take advantage
Of your kindness, your possessions, and your soul
They will rape and plunder during their ramage

My front door has remained unlocked many times
Now it's double bolted tight
I've grown and left the darkness behind
I'm stepping out into the light

I know a Devil I once adored
I'd taken her home a million days
Not once entering her door
And now I know what it says

She knew better then I
She knew better how to lie
She knew how to make me die
She took a chance and tried

In the end she won because I was a fool
I opened the door and invited the Devil in
All along I thought she was too cool
Not cool enough to be my best friend in the end

So where am I now?
Locked behind a door
Wondering "How?"
Not wanting friends like her any more
