when i escape
it isn't to
somewhere
it's to
someone
there are times
when i don't feel safe
anywhere
and
even though
you're far away
even though
i may never see you
again
you're my hiding place
you're my touchstone
you're the one
i can come home
to
to clear my head
from all the grief
to hide my face
from all the pain
to keep a thought
just for myself
a thought that says
you are sane
you are good
you are the one
that matters to someone
so much
even if
the connection is weak
even when
the clouds are stormy
even when
everything in me
says "no"
something in your heart
says "yes"
silently
and it sees me through
until the sun
rises again
(soon)
