| Poem | The Doorway to Freedom.
Dwelling in darkness, living in fear,
"Oh dear! Where are you?"
Her weary eyes beseech him to stay
for just a little longer. . . Ah!
Those momentary pain of separation,
of devoured expectation,
only to make her stronger -
until that strongest moment,
wherein she became
strong enough to sway away
The doorway to freedom,
of those unchained desires -
to step out, out into -
the overwhelmingly brimming
bright light's spectrum!

About this poem:
I like late night scribbling random lines to an intriguing image prompt, like the one above. This was a part of some online poetry competition on one of famous social networking sites.
The words oozed out as an ode to those entrapped souls with self-inflicted wounds - keeping themselves 'chained' to some one else's expectations or unfulfilled desires. The idea is - only after a major setback and failure that enough courage is mustered to sway away that imagined doorway to freedom!
