Mystery Door

you would think i’d get somewhere with a recurring dream

no matter how hard I try

it doesn’t open

I try and try but it wont work

Every-time I wonder but nothing

I get closer and closer

When I do I get screamed at

I just want to know whats behind the door.

What is behind the door?

I step to the door hear the scream, wake up.

I wake up from curiosity

What‘s so (special) about the door?

I try to argue but gets me no where

No where but the psych ward

Can’t fight.

Fighting means waking up.

Waking up means starting over

Starting over is frustrating

What is behind the door?

What makes it special

Having a creative imagination has no limitations. My favourite past time is just dumping all my thoughts on to paper and seeing where it goes.
