Mar 2020
Laying awake my body floats
It’s spinning and twirling out of control
It quickly speeds up and then it slows
As a figure appears in my room
“Come with me, my friend
Adventure is what you need”
I take the girl’ s hand and she pulls me from my trance
Everything becomes bright
My walls turn into a meadow, and my floor into luscious grass
My ceiling melts into a sky with fluffy clouds and a yellow sun
The stranger and I run through the flowers and fight beasts of different kinds
Tall, short, black and red
But every journey has its end, and ours is coming to a close
I must return home before my mother finds me gone
I am brought back to my room and left alone
And I dream a wonderful dream, yet without the friend I met that night
I don’t know how, what happened, or why the light stayed
But the girl saved me from the evil inside my brain
This is a poem I submitted for a Just Write competition last Saturday.
