I build sandcastles in my mind.
I've done it since a child.
As the dark thoughts they do run wild.
In my mind I build.
An architect I am for it makes me feel fulfilled.
These constructions I create.
In a world filled with hate.
They distract me from the norm.
And help me through life's storm.
In the dentists chair I lie.
Building in my minds eye.
For the bus I sit and wait.
To build I do not hesitate.
I go to a place where nobody knows.
On a sunny beach the warm wind blows.
Ruffles my hair, takes away my despair.
I hear gulls call as I construct these walls.
The tide never changes, hence they never fall.
Made of sand they are, and they're in my mind so far.
Fortresses with moats, where I can float a tiny boat.
All my worries fade away as I shape my hope.
Any tricky situation or when I lose my motivation.
I'm back beside the sound once more, of the crashing ocean.
