I woke up at early dawn Stood up and stared at the lawn Thinking why I woke up so early Today is weird; say peculiarly
The door opened wide inviting me But its still early to some degree The world still is not bright For its still civil twilight
I went back to bed Scratching my small head Just there laying down; just laying still It's fine I said. I have time to kill
Now sunrise appeared I began opening the book; it was dog-eared Mom and dad worked hard for it Prepared me yesterday and told me never quit
I looked outside it's now high noon Now I want to go out I said But I am not ready out there I'm afraid The door still wide open; still very soon
As I fidget in the room, I saw small versions of me What just happened I thought. Weird. But I felt glee. I looked outside and now it's dusk I rushed to finish the unfinished task.
This task has no end I said The door began creaking in; my tears began to shed. Now I'm sure I'm ready to go out I stood up and reach the door knob
The door as I reach became out of sight It disappeared and outside is now at night. I tried to look for the door as my body aches I cried and cried for my pathway is now blocked.
I felt tired but I fought to stay awake For I can never accept this fate. Hear! Hear! I found the door But sad to say I know what its for
It's time to rest I said The time I killed now I wish I never wasted The dog-eared book how I wish I read it all It was the book about the door. But this new door is opened for my soul.
