The Door
In every journey of healing, there’s a moment we face the quiet—the darkness within us. This is not a place of fear, but of understanding. The dark isn’t always the enemy; sometimes, it’s the beginning.
This is a story of transformation, of finding warmth after cold, of connection after solitude.
A story where one thing stood in between—the door.
Once, there was a room—a quiet, forgotten room—
filled with emptiness and shadows.
Dark lived there, alone.
It had no strength to find the key that locked the only door.
It had grown used to the emptiness.
Strangely, the silence was calming.
There was no need to search for truth—
because in the dark, truth was hidden, and that was easier.
But something within began to shift.
Slowly, quietly, Dark started gaining strength—
not from the world outside,
but from the stillness it had long embraced.
And then,
in that silent moment of change,
Dark felt something.
A presence.
A warmth that touched the corners of the cold room.
It was Light.
Light didn’t rush in.
It waited patiently until Dark found the courage
to unlock the door—just a little.
And with that tiny crack,
warmth entered.
Soft, comforting, safe.
The more Light entered,
the more the room began to change.
Dark saw colors it had never imagined.
Felt connection it had never known.
The emptiness began to fill—
not with noise,
but with feeling.
Hope.
Joy.
Peace.
And as the Light grew,
Dark realized something beautiful:
it wasn’t being erased.
It was being seen.
It was being understood.
But the room—once Dark’s alone—
now belonged to something more.
A balance. A harmony.
Eventually, Light filled every corner.
The room shone.
Dark, gentle and silent, stepped out—
not out of sadness,
but out of respect.
It stood by the door,
watching, waiting.
It could not knock,
for it knew:
this space had found its healing.
Yet, somewhere deep inside,
Light still carried Dark—
not as a shadow,
but as a memory.
A beginning.
A part of the story
that led to the light.
Because of the light, the dark stepped away,
Not in anger, but in silent dismay.
It watched as the room filled with golden hue,
And knew its time there was through.
It did not knock, it did not plead,
For light had given all it would need.
Still, outside the door, it chose to stay,
Hoping light might look its way.
Not to return, not to reclaim,
But just to be seen, without shame.
For even as shadows are cast aside,
They wait in love—where truth and longing hide.
