A Lock With No Key Poem by Bradley Dean

In my mind there is a door
That I cannot open
I swallowed the key along time ago
And I can't find the answer
It's in me somewhere
But I'm not getting anywhere

In my heart there is a gate
A million miles high
And I can't climb over it
I tried to open it
I pushed for years
But it's too heavy to move

In my soul there is a hole
It never goes
I keep trying to close it
I try to forget about it
I patch it up time after time
Yet it returns larger still

I tried to get a plane to reality
From the airport of insanity
The metal detector beeped as I went through it
Maybe they will find the key in me
And free my heart from my soul
Take this hole and make me whole
