The Next

By Tony Brown

Many times 
I’ve said before
that I was leaving
and then did not
but somehow
a key has turned
a lock has released
a door has opened
and I am
tumbling through it
into the Next
and it is not as
ugly in there
as I was built
to believe
so what else
is untrue?

  There are so many un-truths in what many of us were taught to believe and each next opens doors we often didn’t believe included us. Love the poem.

  You never know what lies beyond until you finally take the plunge. Great poem 🙂
