Locked doors …I feel good
Knowing you’re safe …secure
You …not so
Got to get out … go!
I …read ..watch
You say …go away
I smile …I’m reading
You yell …don’t stay!
On goes the outing
You go …I follow
Time to go in …
We’ll come …again …tomorrow.
You resist …mock
I walk you inside
Shut the door …lock
Feelings …emotions …collide.

Mom loves to go outside …doesn’t like me going with her.
