how does one open doors closed tight


with broken dreams 
upon the floor
with shattered heart
and wanting more

how does one open 
doors closed tight
and dream again
in morning light?

amid the loss
the words still come
no longer worried now
of sounding dumb

they come from heart
from deep within
and stronger now
not giving in

the door once closed
is open now
the pieces turned
and fit somehow

the broken dreams
once on the floor
recovered now 
a chance to soar

the heart once stilled
bruised and battered
finds love again 
no longer shattered.
