My mind goes through a lot Two many unhinged objects Shoved into a pocket-sized area A curled web of thoughts Tied around my already infirm brain
It seems the only way to turn it off Is to close the broad shutters The vision that shows reality The two windows that hold the truth Holding the pupils of perception
My ever so jaded shoulder A stiff frigid table Becomes a deep resting place For the intense memories Created in my fragile head
I then enter my own place My candy coated world One that causes my mouth to feel To raise my lips just enough To see a merry grin
One that causes my eyes to tear Pools of crystal glee A fountain of youth Filling up the steel ducts Of my giggling inner child
I have my dream That seems so abundant and real I spread my wings that tingle Each made from every sparkling piece Left in my delicate body
Then I fly so far and high Away from my big bully called trouble All I can do is wave a tiny good-bye As the icy wind crystallizes through my hair Chilling my skin just enough to feel a tickle
Until I wake up To see reality’s evil eyes glaring at me Trying to sink into my soul Scorching through my beating heart Then take my smiles away
But I realize it isn’t all that bad For I still have love And one powerful heart Turning my will to unyielding stone Making me invincible
I know who I am I know what I want I know I am strong And I know I have enough direction To be and do what I want
