I place my hand upon the doorknob, But it does not twist. Disheartened, I peer through the peep-hole in the door. I cannot discern whether the darkness clouding my sight is from the abyss Or from the shadow cast by God standing just on the other side of the door. Regardless, I once again turn my back to the door And rejoin the conversation of what awaits us in the Hereafter.

Hereafter
I place my hand upon the doorknob, But it does not twist. Disheartened, I peer through the peep-hole in the door. I cannot discern whether the darkness clouding my sight is from the abyss Or from the shadow cast by God standing just on the other side of the door. Regardless, I once again turn my back to the door And rejoin the conversation of what awaits us in the Hereafter.
