Behind Closed Doors

Behind every closed door

Could be a story waiting to unfold

Of sighs that remained unheard

And words rarely spoken or told

There could be moments of laughter

And maybe many secrets kept

Fears, lies, happiness and smiles

And some tears silently wept 

Some people could have lived here

And lead awesome, amazing lives

Or maybe it was just a dismal place

That was full of sadness and cries

Whenever I gaze at a closed door

So much does my imagination see

I wonder if there’s a lost soul inside

Reaching out with its story for me

So yes, behind every closed door

Could be a story waiting to be told

All it needs is someone to unlock it

And to share, relive it, and unfold
