Finding the World too real to face?
When did you decide,
You would isolate yourself and hide?
When did you close the window?
When did your disgust…
Encrust a frown upon your smile?
It appears it has been there,
For quite a while.
What will it take,
To replace that with hope?
Don’t close the door…
To sit alone and mope!
Open up that window.
Unlock that door you have blocked.
Tell yourself to stop this self defeat.
It is easier than you think.
If you trust with faith and believe…
You don’t need to wallow and weep.
You don’t need to share that,
With others you might see who grieve.
Free yourself…
And let that be,
The escape someone else may follow!
You never know who is peeking.
Wishing for one like you…
To lead and show them the way!
Open up that window.
Unlock that door you have blocked.
Tell yourself to stop this self defeat.
You can!
Didn’t you welcome it to visit?
Has it not overstayed,
And made itself too comfortable?
Free yourself…
And let that be,
The escape someone else may follow!
You never know who is peeking.
Wishing for one like you…
To lead and show them the way!
They too may have unwelcomed guests to rid!
Show them how that is done!
Do it now.
Today!
Open up that window.
Unlock that door you have blocked.
No need to be hospitable,
To something or someone…
That can be stopped.
Whose prisoner are you anyway?
And why is your defeat so much needed?
And to whom is this feeding being pleasingly fed?
