☯๑’- MY ESCAPE☯๑’-

Life is unpredictable even when my best plans have been met.

Still I journey on and get by at best.

Yet, each day I am offered another chance.

A chance to see my dreams die or just begin.

Often scared I hide from changes life has to offer.

Deliberately surrounding myself with familiar things I seek to escape.

Uncomfortable with my own surroundings yet too afraid to change them.

Smiling to mask pain.

Taking life's grandest journeys in my mind.

There my desires are welcomed.

My mind often lures me and traps me deep inside.

Offering me a place where I can do anything.

I fear nothing that takes place because anything can be changed.

I find strength and courage to confront my fears.

There I see my loved ones I have lost.

I scream silently in my mind when life is too much to bear.

No one can hear me demanding answers.

I can change the outcome of anything.

My mind is my safe haven.

It is my escape.

It is the one place where all wrongs can be made right.

If only I could trap those I love with me in my mind.

For once allowing them to see my desires, wants and needs.

Offering them to share life with the woman they claim to love yet never see.
