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.
