Safe Place…

Where do you go?

Where do you go to feel safe?

To feel that everything will be ok,

To feel that one day, that pain will go away,

Do you go to talk?

Do you go to listen?

Do you go to be held,

Or even just to be yourself?

Is it a place of love and tranquility?

Is it a place of honesty and reality?

Is this safe place built on memories?

Do you need to visit your ghost stories?

Is your safe place a kiss on the lips away?

Is your safe place a nice cup of coffee day?

Is it a something or someone?

Is it listening to a tune from birdsong?

Is your safe place a lovely seat in the garden?

Is your safe place feeling that person in heaven?

Is it the wind whispering a spring afternoon,

Or is it knowing that summer is coming soon?

Is your safe place your children laughing and smiling?

Is your safe place being with a loved one, hiding?

Does your heart need to feel whole?

Is your heart in pain or feel broke?

Does your heart need a safe place,

Or maybe a home?

I'm afraid,

I'm afraid I've got no place that I know,

I'm afraid,

I'm afraid that this feeling I have won't go,

Safe place,

Where do I go?

Safe place,

I need to know,

Safe place,

I need to go...
