A door like
No other

It may lead somewhere
Bad

Maybe good if luck
Comes about

Your hand reaches
Out

With flames surrounding
The door

When it opens, there is
A black room

Nothing but
Darkness

There is no light in the
Distance

It’s all pitch
Black


When you shut the
Door

You find yourself
Dead

Death surrounding the
Room

Everything is
Dead

There is no hope for
The black door

I wrote this poem on October 29, 2010. I was sitting in my dark room. Nothing moved. Not even me. The house was silent. It was so silent, It was scary. I hope you enjoy this poem. Thank you for reading.
