@ Formaldehyde.
Thank you! And also, I changed the text to basically white. I was having a hard time finding a color that worked with the back ground and at the time my main focus was having the poem posted.

I'm glad that you liked it(:

The imagery in this poem is beautiful! Honestly, right from the start you've managed to pull the reader in and let them see what you're describing so vividly. Your descriptions may be short but, as a whole, they give away the essence of anxiety and hope, exactly what 'opening a new door' is like.The way you've incorporated the contest's theme has been pulled off effortlessly.

The only downfall is the layout. If the text was lighter, it would be a lot easier to read and would even add to the message behind the words.

All in all, this was a really great poem!

@ seasalt.
I will agree, the back ground is annoying.

Thank you! I'm glad the point of it got through as well as all of the feelings and the point of it.

Hello, my name is Brittany and I'm here to help judge for the contest this poem was entered in.

Before I begin with the comment I want to mention that it's kind of hard to see the actual poem since the font is dark and the backdrop is dark, too.

Despite the layout this was an amazingly done poem. I love that you were able to keep it rather short but you packed a pretty powerful message behind the very few words. Comparing the mind to a room is a great way to start it out, because it allows us to pull in, in a way. Not knowing what something may bring is scary, which is why the future scares so many, but once you put a step forward then everything seems to just even out. So, great job on writing the nervousness of opening the door, and then the calm that follows once you step a foot into the room.

Love, love, loved it.
