    False sanctuary

    "I think all of us at one point had a santuary...A place blissful to the senses and like a dream cast us off into a world of safety and freedom"

    During times of strife
    No sign of escape in sight
    I close my eyes
    Crossing over
    To a plain outside
    This dying realm
    Placed in a sea
    Unknown to the world
    Just me by my lonsome
    No noise
    But the sound of the ocean
    My gaze
    Barely focusing
    On the slight fluxuations
    Of the push and pull
    Fear of drowning
    Nonexistant
    Time held in place
    As if in an orb
    Of pure peace
    Nothing can touch me
    Hurt me
    Permanent sleep
    Free to dream
    Away from the ignorant
    From the nightmares
    The true world holds


    "Unfortunatly there is no such sanctuary nor are there any.That is the sad truth of the world.I used to believe these mental domains were a temporary escape...they are for a while....But we cant escape reality...as depressing as it sounds...we must make the best of it..Find a way through the perilous obsticals and use an open heart to search this world for the answers to the questions infinite in number."

    Truly insightful....It was a good read for me. I love the ending mostly but I have to say i appreciate the middle... It made me think.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
