I'm not sure what style of poetry this. While reading in the workshop forum I saw this form and decided to try it. Doorway To Happiness By Paul Wilson In this lonely place where I dwell No stories of joy do I tell Darkness surrounds me day and night This place on earth a living hell Maybe one day I’ll see the light My sadness will fade out of sight Happiness will then fill my heart Everything will then be all right Searching for the place I must start I look inside my saddened heart I journey back to time before From this sadness I must depart On my journey I see a door That takes me to forevermore The room begins to spin around With eyes closed I fall to the floor From behind the door comes a sound Quickly my heart begins to pound Wondering what could this sound be I ask while lying on the ground As I stand up I now can see It’s just a reflection of me Smiling at who I use to be Smiling at who I use to be |

A nice poem with deep meaning. The good thing about reflections is that they are You. Best wishes! Jon |
