Shaky, battered door,
Shutting once again,
This time,
Forced by cruel hands,

Darkness encases the room,
The dark remains not uncommon here,
In this place,
Blackness reigns,

Among endless abyss of obscurity,
Exists a lone picture
That barely survives
Each push the door
Receives,
When the lumber closes,
The picture evolves
To more of a memento,
A mere trace
Of its old self,

As black chasm becomes unbearable,
Light creeps through
Slight cracks,
Rapidly suffocates,
Almost,
Thinks the picture,
Life cheated once again,
Shadows prevail once more.

I appreciated the thoughts in this one, and can only add one thing...that each of us have rooms like that, which can only be lit by the light of our souls....good work, my friend!!  ~S~

Life is what you make it
Don't let it make you...
