Revolving Doors

When some walk in,

others walk out.

When doors close,

other doors open.

When some pick petals,

others plant roses.

When some lives end,

others begin.

When some fall,

others rise.

When some hurt,

others heal.

When some are numb,

others feel.

When one speaks,

others listen.

When one is dim,

others glisten.

When some quit,

others try.

When some hide,

others arrive.

When some forgive,

others accuse.

When some hit,

others bruise.

When some create,

others deflate.

When adults work,

children play.

When some sleep,

others stay awake.

When some sing,

others dance.

Some will

and others won’t.

Some do

and others don’t.

Life’s revolving door

will never stop spinning.

As long as some enter,

others will exit.

Some may fade away

but at the end of the day,

others stay.
