Daily Nugget #117
once upon an evolving human
once upon an evolving human
while i pondered bright and cheery
next to a light of candle
thumbing thru outdated and long gone beliefs.
while i breathed, nearly meditative
something came a knocking
knocking knocking on my hearts door.
i reached for the nob to open
but the nob was nevermore.
i only saw its shadow
the edge of it, i swore.
but as i reached i found that it was gone
gone, forever more.
the door stood ajar
and my heart
my own
mon coeur
still there in front of me
thru the open door.
the sign
KEEP OUT
was gone
and i wasn’t sure who took it.
me?
maybe so.
i did!
why not? i longed for freedom to fill it.
KEEP OUT
kept out the goodness AND the bad
for what?
‘i don’t want to have the same experiences i had!’
not likely
anyways
that the same thing happens twice.
cause i am new
and
you are new
each moment in this place.
rap rap
upon my hearts door
is the sound of my own knock.
ready to let the world in
my light out
fear, i will not.
once upon an evolving human
is a story of us all.
opening to our own knock
will you answer your own call?
knock knock!
