Big door

Trembling
inching
tiny feet
in big shoes

Seeing
reaching
big hand
moves

Door knob
turns 
slowly

Wee man
pushes
gently

Old boy
nervous
alone

Years
lived
unknown

Awakening
eyes rubbing

Inhaling
body stretching

So young
so old

Much lived
much told

Scared
to see

Wanting
to be

Push open 
the door

Gaze leaves
the floor

Soon

finally

Grown
understood
known

free
