there are several keys
hanging over there
keys to jealousy, sadness, joy, mirth
they unlock the doors of this little room
a closet really
where you live

trapped by indecision
or bad decisions
going to places that only lead back here
taking the dark keys from the hook
going through portals
that should remain closed

why?
the keys to happiness are right there
hanging free and welcoming
gleaming brightly
glowing softly
all you have to do
is pick any one of them
and unlock the door
