A long day lies behind me.
My spirit holds onto hope,
grasping for a life raft
in an ocean of chaos.
My soul yearns for serenity.
Knowing there is peace,
hiding in the valleys
of my mind.
The angels surround me.
Enveloping me in wings;
protecting me
from forces unseen.
Breathing in deeply,
my lungs inhale
wildflowers
on a warm summer day.
A waterfall flows beside me;
washing away
the dirty soil
of an overused mind.
Sunlight shines brightly,
creating a spark
of energy
reigniting the flames of hope.
Love enters my body.
Pink rays dancing
and swaying to music
only I can hear.
My soul is set free.
Life is but a canvas,
the paintbrush
is in my mind.
