windows

windows

A Poem by Breanna Riddle

Life is full of windows,

They all open and they close.

But when the rain comes

We close them all at once.

Why? You may ask.

Because we are afraid of the darkness.

We are scared of what may happen if we don’t shut out the rain.


Windows are nice to look out of

But not to go through.

So when life gives you windows…

Let all of the light shine through.

Don’t shut them any more.

Be happy for the water.

Instead angry for the thunder.

Leave your window open through the storm

So that you may understand

What it means to understand the darkness.


Now you know...

When people open their windows

They want you to look in.

To see what they are doing

And to help them see within.

The sun will shine on your window

To show that you need love.

The person that enters your life.

Came through your window out of love.

So when your window closes and the light is now within.

The person you have chosen…

Is the person you need to help you see

all that you can really be.
