6 Doors To Nowhere

Darkness engulfs me. No way out

6 Door To Nowhere

In shadows deep, six doors stand wide,

Each one a promise, yet fears do abide.

A fight for breath, my heart starts to race,

With every choice, fate's cruel embrace.

Upon the threshold, I sense the dread,

An unseen presence, what lies ahead?

With trembling hands, I grasp at the cold,

Each turn a story that’s yet to be told.

I push through the first, it whispers of light,

But the glimmer fades into infinite night.

The second beckons, a promise I crave,

Yet leads me back to the path of the brave.

The third door creaks, a familiar face,

Shadows of memories lose their grace.

The fourth door's quiet, secrets it keeps,

I feel the weight of the sorrow it weeps.

The fifth door shimmers, like stars in the dark,

Yet dims with a flicker, extinguishing spark.

The sixth door looms, a grim silhouette,

A choice with no end I cannot forget.

Forever trapped, a phantom in flight,

A ghost of tomorrow, lost in the night.

In this maze of choices, my spirit confined,

Haunted by echoes, unmoored and blind.

Time slips away like whispers of dreams,

In a world of shadows, nothing is as it seems.

With each passing hope, I softly implore,

These doors lead to nowhere, a fate I abhor.

Then I hear a ringing, I open my eyes,

It was only a dream beneath vast waking skies.

I awake to sunrise, a brand new view,

Just a nightmare I tremble, trying to undo.

Glad of this morning, with brightness in view,

I embrace the horizon, for there is much more to do.

No longer a ghost, but alive and afloat,

With dreams yet to chase and a heart full of hope.
