Those Glass Doors



Those Glass Doors

There are those glass doors
On those corridors
They are visible
Yet inaccessible
Passers-by are fraught
Swift glances are caught
But eased off with smiles
And glints from their eyes
That's how much it took
They don't want to look
At those great glass doors
On those corridors
They are visible
Yet inaccessible
