The KeyTo The Door
The door took my to nowhere just more darkness

The KeyTo The Door
At 21, I got the key to the door,
But beyond it, nothing—a hollow core.
No heaven, no earth, no sky, no sea,
Just a black hole staring back at me.
No home to shelter, no living room’s glow,
Just an empty shell where hope won’t grow.
Was this key to nowhere, or a passage to hell,
In a world where nothing seemed to dwell?
A darkened emptiness, a shadowed nest,
Where dreams lay quiet, failed the test.
Yet even in voids, seeds may sow,
A spark to light, a way to grow.
Perhaps this key, though cruelly bare,
Was meant to teach, to make me dare—
To build a world from what was gone,
And find my strength to carry on.
Or maybe just to close my eye
From life as I knew, to dark goodbye.
My poem’s deep, but I am sure
The key to the door is not my cure.
