Changes….welcome!
With every step of the journey, you are faced with infinite choices. Each choice will lead you to a whole different life, you will know different people, do different things and be someone different. You make your choice, by serendipity or by careful thought and when you take a step in that direction, the other choices disappear. The doors slam shut behind you with finality. All you can do is look ahead where again your choices lie. Such is life dearest, you can never second guess – only hope that you will be thankful for this life, these things and these people.
light snuck in
and made the doorknob glow
reflections of gold everywhere
bouncing off the walls
shining in my eyes
I woke up
and looked around
and wondered why
you weren’t there
in that space next to me
that id carefully left
just for you
my bed just had me
but there was room
for you
I wondered why
you weren’t laying there
still asleep
eyes closed
lips slightly open
tempting me to wake you
with just a single kiss

Changes do happen, and most times there’s nothing we can do about it.
But we can always accept change and take the best out of it no?
Take care
very well said, lotus!
have a great week!
Very insightful. I hope for my sake that doors do not always close with such finality.
oh wow. i was reading and enjoying…then i hit the last 3 – 4 lines and my heart just did one of those curious leaps
and i was left with a beautiful image and wistfulness to match. thank you for that.
…and the morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball.
…and thank goodness for change! – would be terrible stench
from staleness, stunted growth. Ah yes, open the doors and windows and welcome fresh air! 
Think the key to change is to be firmly planted in the moment – the present, without the pulling and tugging of yesterday or tomorrow. Happy adventure!
