So close

Years of travel,searching for truth
the door so far away
answers come and go like a dream
the door grows
truth comes in many forms, so sad, none found real
the door grows closer
once sought with fresh heart and mind
now desperate to have done ,once,for all
the door , so close
Life shows you what you seek
the door bars you from the prize
its there! So close!
Truth waits, tantilizing and warm
The door holds strong, against fists and fury
To the floor ,,,you slide,,,,,
strength gone,,,at the mercy of yourself
.....click.....
you give yourself the key,,,,
This door grows small
the horizon,,,,,so far away,,,

Very descriptive piece, I felt I was there with you, trying so hard to open that door.
Sad, but beautiful.
Thank you for sharing.

We were meant to live for so much more have we lost ourselves?
Maybe redemption has stories to tell maybe forgiveness is right where you fell.

Michelle, Michelle, Michelle... You are just gonna have to stop writing this well, or I am going to get a complex.
I liked it when you showed it to me before you posted it, and I like is a little more seeing it on here a few days later.

My ex-wife says I never listened to her. At least I think that's what
she said
