Sometimes I just like to
Turn the lights off,
Shut my door, from the outside world
and Lie down facing up,
When I’m like this,
My heart feels in peace,
My mind doesn’t wander into space,
and I feel like I’m laying on a cloud, on a sunny day.
I can hear the breeze outside,
Knocking on my window.
I know the outside world is only one wall away,
But for now, I let my worries wait at my doorstep,
In the darkness,
For once I feel safe.
Inside these four walls,
I feel invincible,
I feel invisible,
I’m untouchable,
In the dark,
I Reveal my secrets.
And as the earth stands still,
I play my guitar, and let the sound take me away,
Oh, the world,
So captivatingly beautiful,
yet for some, it’s our biggest fear,
this is why sometimes I like to step out of it for a moment,
To keep my sanity,
for the years ahead.
