Pleasant Spot

Where I rest and feel comfort

By Laura AnnesePublished 3 years ago 2 min read

A perfect place to be

When I travel and take refuge

Clear and vivid as I breathe

In a reality I crawl into

I dance and dance

in motion with my feelings

And I hear music inside me

Even if none is playing

Then I start to give in

To that place I create,

The one I slide into

When everything gets,

Tiring and difficult

And hard to accept

And my pain fades,

between songs and laughter

the ones I get lost to,

and take me into a new chapter

Then is the soundtrack

that starts with prompt beat

And joy overcomes

as I feel its embrace,

in that special existence

the one where I reign

And there I‘m the heroine

And Is all about me

As long as the song goes

It is all that I need

But then again

Reality wakes me

And I do what I have to

As day to day shakes me

And as life keeps happening

I keep the wheel turning,

With unstoppable rhythm

undeniably flowing

Because in my solitude

I crawl up inside

and start one more journey,

In the place where I hide

Love stories, new scenes,

New lovers and themes

I smile

the applause…

And I feel my wings spreading

as I close my eyes

All the tunes give me comfort

As I raise and take flight

A whole new dimension

of my perfect scheme

Spread open in front

of my healed self esteem

The one I envision

The one that I long

Because some realities

are hard and unchangeable

and the need to adapt to them

Is hard and rarely attainable

The hurt and sorrow that break my spirit

Make me learn and grow stronger

As I am earning my merit

And although some are harder

to embrace and give credence,

And other quite impossible,

they make yourself greater

So I start dancing

again in my world,

And I am perfect and flawless

and unique of my own

My body moves graciously

With the harmony I assign

That raises my spirits

As I keep them aligned

And I am safe

And I am cherished

And I ‘m not alone

Other ones join the feast

in my perfect dimension

Characters I create

with imagination

I know they aren’t veritable

anywhere else

But they are real for me

in the private space

of my own great scenario

The one that I make

Everyone plays their part

And all is grating

Even when the music ends

they will still be there waiting

Patiently in my thoughts

Anytime that I want

reappearing with grace

At my own sweet demand

And all will start again

As I wish them to appear

Some will change, some return

And some fade in the rear

No tools are necessary

I just need to feel risen

Only need to engage

And comfortably listen

New worlds open

in the solstice of my mind

And the silence breaks

as I hear them come back

Because that’s what it takes for me

To regain trust and feel comfort

No particular rhythm

No particular motion

So I soar renewed

And restart, and adjust,

Take a break from reality

In the place that I trust
