Safe Haven
It is my safe haven.
The place in which my soul retreats
To relax
To recharge
To think.
It allows me to ponder
And wonder
And express
Things I could not
Otherwise, make known.
A strategic move
To where I can see everything
In a new light.
It comes naturally to me
Thoughts,
Words,
Connections,
When I take refuge
In my safe haven.
I have nothing to hide
From the page.
It holds all my secrets
And it will not let them go,
Not share with anyone
Other than me.
My safe haven
Is a place for only me.
It knows what I leave
Unsaid and unassumed.
It carries the weight for me.
I give my safe haven my worries
And my fears
To hold on to for me
So I do not have the burden
Of their gravity
Holding me in one place
Like an anchor.
With my fears, and worries
Carefully hidden
In my safe haven.
I can be free of them,
And free to move forward.
As if I have no fears
Or worries.
So I can chase my dreams
Uninhibited.
