Poem - Comfortable Place to Hide

Comfortable Place to Hide

Under a dusk sky, stands a vacant tower in a sprawling city

Doors barred, windows boarded

Stranded in an austere and crowded reality

The silvered promises hate my heart

Reflecting distortion with endless compromise

Surviving so many days standing apart

Holding on so my vision of you will not disappear

The tears dry and the feeling lives

My deepest aspect is begging for here

Smashed and shattered from lies

Hope remains alive in any world with you inside

I make a wish for you every time I open my eyes

A dream is a comfortable place to hide

A story of a day after the distance has been traversed

A future of days standing on the same side

A bright blue tree in the midst of a barren field

The low tier bearing a glowing white apple

Absent of foliage, even now it can be healed
