Rooms of the Mind

Our states of mind are like different rooms.
Some of wonder. Some of gloom.
We go out of one and in another.
Each one is different to the other.

We know not what we'll find inside.
And we might wish to try and hide.
Some rooms be dark. Some rooms be light.
Some be with joy and some with fright.

Each one may contain certain rules.
With different objects and different tools.
With challenges and its own puzzles,
And ways to confront its special struggles.

Whether it be one that's good or one that's bad,
Accept the room and try to be glad.
But if you are unhappy then open the door,
To see what the next room has in store.
