My Room

Come on in my friend, and stop awhile,

Nice to have your company.

You are welcome to enjoy the view with me.

Soaking up the warmth of the fire while we talk, open and free.

~ It's great to be me ~

The room we sit in is decorated with memories past

Dancing visions of great things to come.

Dream with me awhile,

Feel enlightenment with me.

Place your piece in the waiting puzzle that lay undone…

~ Just for fun ~

But there is a room beyond what you know.

Hidden quietly, under the lock and key of time.

No one goes there anymore, the entrance guarded and veiled.

Treasures remain unearthed, some lay silently broken in mind.

~ This place you will not find ~

This lair holds my heart in a glen of safekeeping,

Quietly beating to some monotonous tone.

Passions subdued, withheld and cooled within the darkness.

Trading the risk of harm, for the safe and steady beat of alone.

I am not sad…

I am untouched…

I am home…

So enjoy your time as I savor mine.

Knowing tomorrow brings not another today.

Will we return with the spring’s first bloom?

Or simply wake grateful for our temporary stay?

~ I dream from a room of a different day ~
