We are all escapists
one way or another
moments overcome us
to our moods we surrender
comfort to seek
wounds and bruises to heal
courage and patience to renew
while past scenes their unwelcome presence reveal.
We are all escapists
one way or another
life is indifferent and takes no sides
we laugh and we cry, we rejoice and we suffer.
Believe not those who proudly declare
they are the invincible optimists
when the tides of life rock their boats their hearts sink
overnight they would turn miserable pessimists.
