That Door

That door:

Love is dangerous
That fear is great
To cry so much,
It’s like a lake
To wish for true love
Is a big mistake
I know the danger.
But,
Yet I wish each more
Blind to the facts
To see what's out that door
Like a horror film
Not knowing,
What's on the other side?
Curious like a child
Innocent like a child
But,
Yet I'm still alive
Still strong with faith
One day no longer there
A new life's choices to make
None made for me
To know I'm safe
To get to open that door
The doors clear with faith
