I have found that in difficult time, search for answers but never can find, until I discovered peace in my mind. Ken

Safety


There is a place where one can safely escape,
It is comfortable, warm and a reclusive space.
No one invades, no one can break,
It is found only in one special place.

It hides in the heart where there is peace,
No one can covet, no one can speak.
It is special and priceless and very selfless,
Where one can breathe without feeling aloneness.
Where it is located only one knows,
It is not in places where most people go.

It is where thoughts safely comingle,
Not concerned or worried about emotions tingled.
It can be found only when one seeks,
Its secrets are safe, no one can peek.
 
It is only expressed when it exposes,
To those who are special and no one imposes.
When you locate the spot so deeply hidden,
Visit it often where you will find your reason for living.
Don’t be afraid of what you will find,
Because it is hidden safely only in one’s mind.

Glad you enjoyed it. At times we look for answers outside ourself, but the answers are within us, we just have to trust the self. Ken

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
