When One door Slams

When One door Slams

A Poem by K-mo

I stumbled across a hall with many kinds of doors

Ones were tall and some were short, some even round

or square and swirled around


But what door would be the one I shall enter because

journey must not end here, I want to know where it will

take me from here


My mind is whirling with all the different opportunities

the mystery makes my heart pound so loudly, as I stand here

in this hall; feeling quite small but oddly tall


When one door slams, another door is ready to be open

and here to hoping it is the one that makes my journey

whatever it was supposed to be, and hope that I don't lose

my way


I stumbled across a door that stood out from all the rest

it wasn't anything special, in fact it was quite plain but yet

it held my gaze, and the more I stood there wondering

I felt my feet wandering ever closer


I hesitate opening up the door and ponder some more

what is it about this particular door that makes my heart

sore?!


I close my eyes and soon feel my fingers latch tightly around the cold

door handle and without a word I open the door and enter, and from what

I see is nothing but light, so bright I fear I might lose sight


I close my eyes for just one moment and then open my eyes and then it is dark,

what happened to that light that once made my eyes sore.. I mustn't have opened

the right door

An amazing metaphor. There are so many choices. But which way will you choose to go and what will be waiting for you on the other side of each door you choose.
