With trembling hand, <br />I knocked upon the door, <br />which someone had sent me to. <br />They told me a new life <br />awaits me there. <br />I reached out <br />and knocked on the door <br />not knowing when it opened <br />exactly what I’d find. <br />My heart beat faster, <br />almost racing from my chest. <br />I could hear footsteps <br />coming from within. <br />My hand trembled even more <br />as the footsteps headed towards the door. <br />I stood there in anticipations <br />as the door begins to open wide. <br />So far, I have not told you <br />who will be coming to the door. <br />Will it be a long lost sibling, <br />a future love, or even God? <br />I will have to let you decide, <br />because being a nervous person. <br />The suspense was killing me, <br />so I ran and hid, and never saw <br />who was it answering the door.<br /><br />David Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/behind-the-door-3/
