A Life With No Door Poem by Lyn Paul

A Life With No Door

Rating: 5.0


My heart aches, for those like you
Who don't know where they're going, Don't know what to do.
Never given any encouragement, protection or self worth.
And never feeling love. Not even at birth.

Growing and learning yet never getting anywhere,
Learning only of survival... as no one shows they care.
Education did not exist- Only survival felt right.
Living only for today - And only tonight.

But the giving that I gave opened many doors,
So many options, for me to explore.
I gave so much and opened arms grabbed me,
Helped me to grow and made me really see.

That anyone can survive, A Life With No Door,
As long as you have the windows and Know that there is more.
More for you to explore and to realise how important you are,
Especially the distance you have travelled and just how far

How far you have grown and what you still need to see
To realise this huge lesson; has given you the will to believe.

Many spend their lives behind closed doors, rarely catching a glimpse of the sun. Deep and thought-provoking.
