The Open Door

The Open door (My life’s Maze day) Yesterday I painted my dream with the colors of the earth like many I was afraid of the unknown’ land of dreamers’ The walls of doubt surrounded my thoughts But to kill the shadow-(dark) is to shine light on it And faith is ‘but’ the path we fallow in the absences of defined reality I will not hide behind the shadows of ones long gone Indeed you never know what you got until its gone’ As I climb above the walls of my life’s Maze, my purpose is set clear I do not go up the ladder for the world to see me But for me to see the world Many moons have passed, Days have become nights Weeks have become months, Years have become decades But the true secrete behind the Vail of Mona Lisa Is known best by the artist with a brush, Da Vinci had a code Yet the portrait revealed is left for the world’s eyes to interpret So fear not dear reader and walk with me through this open door But beyond this door is a story you never Knew This is a story of a child, as son, a boy and the man, you have come to know Take no offense in the face of reality, indeed courage is not the absence of fear But it is the strength of a hero within, without false promises As the journey continues and we turn another page to my life’s maze my foot print remain a mark not drawn on the ground or printed in rocks As we have passed the ages of the soft stone Let it remain visible in the hearts I have touched And to the hands I held, the grip remain brotherly The words spoken be a shied to guide and protect the broken heart(-ed) For the earth’s beauty can only be defined When we acknowledge that the moon, the stars and the sun Are but one thing that give light to earth As is the earth one with them And we all stand to be judged but one creator above all So walk with me through this open door dear reader Let’s retraces the journey and discover through twist and turns For the life of me without false promises……….
