Do you not hear it?

Do you not hear it?

The knock on your 'window'.

 

Do you not hear it?

This time it is a knock on the 'door'.

 

Do you not hear it?

The knock isn't going away, so stop avoiding it.

 

It isn't strange really, that you don't hear this knock.

Most people don't hear the knock, this knock that sounds in everybody's mind.

 

The time has come for you to answer door.

The door that leads to maturity, to the real world.

 

Your family is waiting there for you, and so am I.

The other side is not scary at all, so answer the door.

 

So let me ask you again, do you hear this knock?

The wake up call for you to grow up and mature for your family and me.
