Exit To an Entrance

That closed door was the entrance

at first I could not tell.

As I walked through it I was sad

My head hung low

my knees weak my throat

filled with lumps

eyes overflowing with water

Just like that it was over

I sat and I wondered what my next move should be

I did not have the power nor the key to my destiny

Never once did I consider his

will

just my way

My fight became a battle and I felt like I'd lost

so tired of the foe that I drifted off into a deep sleep

dream dream dream

did I

about a beautiful life

flowers all around me so rich in color so loudly scented

looking ahead there was a beam of light

from it came a voice

it said do not fret, for everything is really alright

follow me without care of where I lead

think of this journey as a trust

fall

know that I will catch you indeed

placing one foot in front of the other

I followed the beam of light

guided by the powerful voice

I came upon a door

It appeared to be the same door that I'd last walked through when I was awake

the beam of light went through first and quickly disappeared

as I walked through

there were people

lots of beautiful people

they looked radiant to my eyes

one approached me and said welcome to the life intended for you

I will be giving you your tour

there was a room

it was filled with safe deposit boxes

he pointed saying this one is yours

I opened it and there was money

lots of money

I asked how much could I have

he replied all

It all belongs to you

I asked how much is here

he said an infinite amount

the way it works is that no matter how much you withdraw the amount is replaced

you may take as much as you want whenever you want it shall just be refilled

he handed me a sac made of hemp and ordered me to fill it and so I did

We began walking again until we approached another room

this was an extraordinary room

It was filled with mansions

As I looked straight ahead I noticed a large sign

it appeared to be for sale

I am following my leader and he is walking toward the most beautiful mansion

of them all

as we got closer the sign did not read what I thought

It had a name on it, the name was mine

he said this is yours

I replied how much is the mortgage

he answered zero, your house is paid in full

the land it sits on is yours as well

One thing before you ask he said

there are no property taxes

Again we started toward another room

this room was different

It had a racetrack styled floor

there were Bentley's Rolls Royce's and Benz's

How many

Why I really could not tell

too many

He said pick one of each and never mind the note

they are all paid for

you will have no note

I selected three and then we left

this time we walked into an empty room and my leader said this is the way back to life

he told me to take good care and turned in the other direction

I yelled wait

what is your name

He answered Angel... then he disappeared

As I tried to figure out what just happened

the beam of light reappeared

the powerful voice came back

My child you were not dreaming this is real

you are now set four life have a wonderful one

We shall meet again...

Trust all doors that close in your life do not be sad. Closed doors are new beginings and sometimes greater destinations
