I will fly away, on a feathered ride
Disguise myself, so I can hide
Leave the turmoil, journey where
Golden suns caress my hair,
Fill my lungs with fragrant air,
Hoping I can find me there
Cast my worries to the side
As tranquility and I collide

Is there a place I can wander to,
Where no one else can find me?
A place that I can call my own,
Where chains no longer bind me?
Somewhere I can just relax
Kick back and breathe awhile
Take in subtle calming breezes
Just sit, and write, and smile
I need to find myself again
Though I’m not sure if I can
Perhaps I never really roamed
And this is all God’s plan
So I will take some time to think
And hope for a simple solution
That my life is really what I make of it
And that place, is just an illusion

She held no secrets
Like empty pages
Yet to be penned
Her script knew nothing
Of the role she played
In a time forgotten, shielded
From the words that fell
Unspoken in the drama of life

Step lightly, be careful not to break the shell
I wouldn’t want to crush your feelings
All is not well that doesn’t end well
Emotions are often sent reeling
Speak softly, never rough nor crude
Quiet, calming, the words must be
Or, surely, I’ll be considered rude
And you’ll go running for sympathy
Wait, before you spew more slander
Exactly what is it that we don’t agree?
Stop wasting time on pure propaganda
Perhaps the problem isn’t really me…..

Here we are, my dear friends
My time away has passed
I’m back from my vacation
It was over much too fast
I spent much needed time
Taking in the beauty of the lake
Along with the mountains and nature
I really needed the break!
Though now that I’m back home
I really can’t complain
I have to say, I missed you all
So I’m off to write again!
