Why Lock Yourself Inside

Close the door why?
not to alter your life....!?
Hide the window why?
for fear of pondering
the imponderable....!?
lock yourself in
for what ?
Not to be revealed,
for being afraid of fate, of infinity,
of the unknown...?

Hello alaka, I like the title/ Everyone is afraid of the unknown. To not know what will happen is scary Alaka.Salute Darlene.
