Closing Doors

In denial is a serious sickness Watching every move I make Simply because a word has been uttered to me A minute time passed With the hope that nothing has changed How delusional of me To have believed in an unknown situation To have been sacred Simply because another rejection was too expensive What are the odds of realizing that all this time I had known, but reality was never in the eyes? Morning questions never answered And having been a stupid but necessary move To finally determine the standards of the situation Should there have been another day Of the same events, they will be ignored As this time, it has been kept in the open Every heartbeat felt While waiting with anticipation To either declare love or war Some of it left to the ears of others To leave a visible proof That indeed it all happened And that it is not an act of short period Are times really that hard, that it is Difficult to find what is true and pure? That we settle for the bits that are thrown to us Simply because society has standard charts that needs following. What if dreams, victory and possessions Required no hand of a man nor a name of his Would the fair maiden really move up the ladder To build the impossibility known only to be possible amongst men? Are situations so bad that any men qualifies to be a shining Knight in Armour? Some battles were created solely for women and them alone. It is difficult, the first steps but eventually it becomes a routine, thus hair, face and body requires proper care and knowledge. Promises are indeed, sometimes just plain words That keep us in unseen prisons For us to wait for judgement While in actual truth, We have the keys to open free and walk away What every war has in an ending of things And beginning of new things After every storm is a rainbow full of life and sweet hopes. While you close the final chapter Know that the war of confusion and doubt Has come to an end And that no more are you a fool nor Would you ever embarrass the dignity and pride You hold so dear Some goodbyes are keys to a happy life Peace of mind and freedom Let this be your anthem and shield Next time it comes knocking on the door.
