A Safe PlaceA Poem by Hailey ShayI have Created a safe place in my time of needA safe place
is hidden deep within my soul Beyond the
glance of any other But that’s
what makes it safe A secure
environment for no other to penetrate A place
that I can call my own A secret
place within my soul that has no windows No one can
see in Only I can
see from the inside out No longer
will I allow breaching to occur Too much
has been stolen Lost from
years of abuse A safe
place is hidden deeply within my soul Where the
ocean tides meet the sand Crashing
upon the surface With a
salty fragrance that reaches my nostrils as a perfume Where the
trees sway in rhythmic motion And the
breeze creates a humming melody whistling faintly within my eardrums Comfort and
peace flood this secret place But I must
keep it locked Because
vulnerability is not an option once again A safe
place is hidden within my soul Where all
my tears are collected which form a bath of purity Where I
dive into the stream of peace Where my
heart and soul are content A safe
place hidden deep within my soul Locked by
chains Surrounded
by layers of stone Stacked
brick by brick from each encounter Each piece
of pain that fits into the puzzle of my life Trust is no
longer of appearance Love is
something I have lost hope of the existence of A safe
place is hidden deeply within my soul Where the
valley is of greenery as far as the eyes can see The birds
sing songs in constant continuous rhythmic melody While
simultaneously praising the power above Streams of
mercy wash over the earth Creating a
freshness about the air Clear as a
crystal which epitomizes transparent purity © 2013 Hailey ShayReviews
