{.......Doors......}

You slowly open the door ...."These doors".... And what is behind them Quickly leaps out Trying to take hold An invitation Toward the unknown.... The battle begins Begins, for it's control! Pandoras box The forbidden fruit When will you learn? When will you know? How many times Must you fall? How many tears For them all? A lifetime of lessons A lifetime of doors ......"Time"....... At the end of the hall At the end The end of it all! How many doors Have you left to turn? "When"....Will you ever learn? These doors, like metaphors.... Knock knock, who's there? Turn right No, turn left Through this door No, go through that Past it's corridore, to It's if and or.... To, it's other door No, it's many doors Any doors? In the end, you shall choose! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ {......Doors.......}
