Doors Open, Doors Close

Does one door close first
before another one opens wide?
or does one open first
giving a chance to decide
whether you want to close
the one that you now stand in?
what happens either way...
stability? reckless abandon?

Is there really a series of doors
through this journey that will end
as if it doesn't even matter anyway...
and what about windows? Do they fit in?

I say go with the flow,
with the happy you know
whether destiny or structure
of ways that things will go

You only go through once
mistakes bound to be made
life is a maze, a story,
a game to be played...

have fun whatever you choose
look out windows, plan to lose,
wear them well, if you fit the shoes,
spread your canvas for the rainbow's hues...

follow the heart, for only it knows
the invisible limits of fasts and slows,
run with the first emotion you chose,
be cautious and watch your toes
just in case doors open, doors close.
