My Writing Place

I have a little place I go
Deep inside my mind
A place where I can escape the woes
I get from time to time
A place where I can be
The me I want to be
A place where I can sing and dance, write poetry and prose.
Where I can be my bold self
And not worry about those
Who make fun or criticise or
Use me as a mat to wipe their feet.

A place that does inspire me to be the best I can
A place where I can dream fantasy of peace and joy and
Love that makes you feel so glad or may bring tears to your eyes
A place where all seems friendly, too, with nothing to despise

I also have a little place out on the web
A place where I can share my thoughts and everything I've said
Is taken kind and garners advice to help me better my dreams
Encourages me, too, to opine on others in what it really seems
Is a sharing place, supportive place
A window to my little place
Deep inside my mind
A place where I can bare my soul and the events of my life
And get a release to turn my thoughts away from all the strife

So from my little window from my place within my mind
I sit and let the words take shape
Be they happiness or a crime
I return refreshed and more alive
My woes now seem far away
I'm ready to tackle the real world once more
Until again I need to steal away.
