Poem – The Doorways of Death


Poem – The Doorways of Death

 

How close will I get to the doors of death?

Before I realize that currently … I am inept.

Death shows a way out of the problem.

But life is about learning to solve them.

It was going to be time to embrace the whole.

And see that there is something beyond the goal.

That one that was to determine if I would succeed or fail.

The one that I would try to avoid … to no avail.

Dancing in the darkness of my mind.

All my attempts to be patient and kind.

Were really a way to avoid what was lurking inside.

And now she was about to show me all the places I hide.
