You arrived.

The noise is still out there.

It doesn't follow you in.

the garden opens downward

bring your attention with you — it's the only light there is

The garden is in no hurry.

You can stop hurrying too.

keep pressing — the door knows you're there

What did you bring here tonight?

the garden is asking — it can wait

a room not everyone finds

You don't need to be good.

You don't need to be useful.

You can be here, and that's enough.

Stay here a while.

No one is asking anything.

the garden is asking — it can wait

You walked.

You were here.
