THE DOORWAY (A Dark Poem)



The door is open
and inside my nightmare awaits
The joke was on me all along
For daring to think I can be whole
Pain isn't just my companion
It's my destiny
There's no escaping what was meant to be
And still I feel strange comfort
In the familiar darkness
The dirty view of the world
Is exactly as I remember
Its as though none of it ever left
I take a deep breath as I
Step through the doorway
I close my eyes
And enter the cold cruel embrace
Of my old friend...
