There stands a door.
A door to the love we shared,
dreams of a forever and more.
You chose to close the door
And I threw my key away.
Turning my back on it,
Letting it all just decay.
Years have passed,
And we have gone astray.
Until I heard a knock,
And maybe the sound of the door unlock.
My thoughts struggle to align,
Caught in the web of time.
Shed were many tears,
Not just for the lost years,
For I was finally facing my fears.
The fear of the door
Never opening again.
Thought if I walked a little more,
My heart I wouldn’t have to mend.
Yet we stand before the door,
The door to what was.
You on the other side
And my emotions, trying to hide.
I’ve looked frantically for the key.
Blind to the reality,
That if I just found the key,
I’d know we aren’t meant to be.
And while it is a sad sight to see,
I’ll know I have to keep,
Onward on this journey.
If I just found the key,
I’ll know that this isn’t the end of me.
So heartbreakingly beautiful Teju. Keep writing beautiful pieces like this.
Intense and very thought provoking………
The predicament of heart vs mind!
Never knew that you packed such a profound punch behind your beguiling smile! Keep at it!

Just nothing but Wow! Keep flowering between the wings of thoughts and dreams and you shall find your space that will truly be yours. May Kamakshi keep you blessed always.

Beautifully written Teju… best wishes for more to come .
How Profound is this wonderful poem. It perfectly puts forth the pain and dilemma of losing one’s love. You have essayed the saying " When God closes one door , he opens up several other doors , or at least a new window of opportunity " Well Done girl .
The Door, is a deep heartfelt and powerful poem.
Congratulations Teju, keep it up.
