WORLD IN MY MIND

I never had somewhere I can fit in

nor had a friend

who can truly relate

so I created a world in my mind

to have a hideout where I can escape.

It’s my happy place where I often go

when I’m sad or anxious or feeling down,

I close my eyes, sit back and relax,

surrounded by silence-my favourite sound.

solitude does hurt a little

but that’s a small price to pay

in order to get to my fantasy world

where all my problems seem far away.

That’s where all my secrets are,

where I go to hide my tears.

that’s a place where I can feel free,

where I escape from all my fears.

Others tell me I’m absent too much

how I’m standing out and I should adjust

but I’d rather be stuck with my head in clouds

than live in this world of envy and lust.

because I’m just a lonely writer

who is longing for a real friend

yet I stay hidden in a world in my mind knowing well that no one understand.
