Her life had always been one in which a door would close <br />And another door or two would open... <br />Today she awoke and sighed with defeated weakness.... <br />Pale and mortally exhausted by her diseased beliefs <br />Not even a window of opportunity was to open <br />For as is with everything in life.... <br />She had reached the very end.... <br />Beyond which she herself had believed nothing existed <br />All doors to her tomb had now been sealed___ <br /> <br /> <br />(2007)<br /><br />Ted Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-junkie-s-lament-over-having-been-an-opportunist-like-cleopatra/
