All our life



It is when the door
starts to slowly open
within
our minds eye
it is then
with growing fear
we will have
to decide
will we hide
within
our House of cards
with our belief
of denile
that our belief
will last
or will the wave
of our imprisoned feelings
pass us
though the door
to a place
all our lifes
we have tried
to ignore
