The Door

Ahead in thought there lies a door
Through which I dare to pass
It says "Come take the step,go through,if you search for
even more"
But as I near the entrance bright,I feel the need to pause
For once I go beyond that door my life will never be
the same, I shall be free...of mankinds's faults and negatives
that govern you and me.

Within that door I dare to dream
of worlds with difference clear
that offer newness to behold,matchless dreams that draw me near.
Here are found no common things, described as "used to be"
Only thoughts that promise change
but shared by more than me.

I would make all new,leave the old,dream of better things
Take up the challenge to rise above on higher thoughts as wings.
For I fear not failure,not live to please
the crowd that shares this world
Among them all there must be one who hears the call like me

Walls must come down,rules can dissolve
replaced by open minds
that take the place of all we knew
and shared with all mankind
So join with me and take the step
step through that open door
for there we find the very thing
the world is searching for.

A great poem, so filled with depth of emotions. It answers conjectures of many thoughts that trouble most of us at times, do we take the step,or do we decline.
I really enjoyed your poem, keep up thee great work. Larrypeace wow

Some would call this "thinking outside the box".
It's a journey that must be taken to make those "matchless dreams" a reality.
Magnificent Inspirational Piece!

Ahead in thought there lies a door Through which I dare to pass...for there we find the very thing the world is searching for. From beginning to end, the author's write encourages all to live life with open minds and, I suspect, with open hearts. Thanks for sharing.

It is our hearts which must open wide
~To reach the door and step outside
No one knows where that path will lead
~But we will be there we need to be.
