Night and the Door

“Enigma enamels the doors of the night.”
               - Quote by Poet 

The night opens the door
The soul walks through it
Time doesn’t outrun 
Nothing else to grey

The soul is summoned 
The unseen calls out 
There’s a gentle ease
Grief pervades the room 

The night’s work is deep
It spins mystery 
It seeks and searches
Its cry separates

The body retreats 
The soul goes beyond
The threshold is crossed
It’s beyond a dream
