My Sanctuary
My Sanctuary
Exhilaration feeds my mind
as I glide along in ecstasy.
I am alone, but jubilant:
I celebrate this loneliness.
Fear evaporates much faster
than this wondrous freedom,
and I begin to explore a new world.
Still in awe, I hold my breath,
hoping that I can stay forever
in this place of perfect serenity.
Here I am free of many things;
I have freedom of motion,
but I cannot talk.
I enjoy the silence, though,
and I love the freedom to listen.
My life is in my own hands,
and I am free to be me.
Quickly, though, my excitement fades,
and as I rush away from this world,
I wish my time here wasn’t over.
The surface breaks and I breathe in,
ready to revisit my bright sanctuary.
