Into the Unknown

What's up ahead?
You can't see anything
Every step brings you closer
To the end, to the beginning
You continue forward not knowing what's ahead
Walking through a dark house
Reaching out, finding nothing
Anything and everything awaits
All it takes is another step
And another
Into the unknown
You grasp a knob
Maybe it's the way out
Or it could be another trick door
The door opens 
Go ahead, it'll be fine
Falling, endlessly falling
More darkness
You look back 
The door is closing
Quick, make a decision
You turn away
Away from the past
And towards the future
