The Door
Last night…
When I closed my eyes
I saw a long black hallway
And a white door in the distance
Illumined only by faint candlelight
Which flickered desperately
Against the oppressive darkness
I walked alone towards the door
But with each step it receded
Its shape shifting into shadows
My vision blurred by panic and tears
I stood paralyzed by despair
Until I vanished into my own night
