An Unlocked Lock

Life is like an open hall full of doors

Some are wide open when we find them and others are shut tight

Some have locks with missing keys and some hold great treasures.

All these doors have one thing in common, 

all of them will be opened and we have no idea what is behind any of them

some of us will be too scared to open them and others will look for ways around them.

Many admire the door and what lies on the other side

I admire the lock.

I look at the one thing holding me back from what is beyond and study it

trying to find what secrets itself holds.

I study the lock till the lock itself becomes a door for me to explore.

I study the lock till the lock opens itself.
