we do not have to wait
for death
to return
to love

the door is open
always
not many can find it
because they don’t look
because they don’t know
it is there

but god left the door open
and sometimes
even those
who don’t want to know
catch a glimpse
of the light
that shines
through the cracks

everything that happens
is a reminder
of the open door

no one else
is needed
to go through
the door
no minister
or guru
there is no one
who stands
at the door
and decides
who gets in and who doesn’t
there is no bouncer
at the door of love
everyone
can walk through
voluntarily
no matter
what they have
or havent
done

but to go through
you have
to be willing
to give up
your
precious self
