The Doorway

the dream spirals
inside your mind 
opening he inner door
to reveal the hidden truth
that lurks inside the darkness

behind the door 
the fog lifts
as the wheel spins 
to a golden sunrise
shining its new light
upon the darkness inside

taking the inner soul on
on a journey 
to internal serenity 
where hearts and flowers
thrive in the calming waters

waters that once was
                        a raging torrent

I'm so glad you enjoyed & found it emotive. My inspiration for this poem came from an piece of art of a friend of mine as well as some of my beliefs
