The white gate

10.28.05 (11:57 am)   [edit]

The gate gleamed, white as bone,


Teeth spaced evenly,


Sharp, pointed, defending


From life, its hurts, and losses…..


To close brings a peace


A solitude that numbs.....


Feeling nothing,


Being safe from what is outside.


With a price, steep indeed,


Demanding everything


For the gates protection…..


The cold feel nothing


Already dead or perhaps just dying


In the end it is the same


The gates close never to open again.


Left alone in eternal solitude


 


So fight for life,


For feeling,


The ability to feel both joy and pain;


Each has its place


For without one or the other


Only flatness remains…..


A listless nothingness,


A repetition of moments


Without color or depth…..


Let in the light


The warmth that it brings ,


The painful growth that follows,


The journey that it is,


That makes up our lives,


With it peaks and valleys


Till it ends
