Sacred Space

Missing image
Sat here with the wind in my hair
The alluring smell of the salt in the air

Captivating beauty all around
As I admire the red sand on the ground

Beauty of the sea is so enticing
The sea gulls noises mesmerizing

The noise and the steam is astounding
The train is passing through which adds to the place being fascinating

There's the gentleman walking is dog alone
The children having wild fun away from home

An old couple walking hand in hand
A young couple making their positive stand

Entwined together looking into each others eyes
The sea breeze blowing through her hair

Romance is untainted
Love is sweet and unpainted

New life is wailing
Toddlers amongst the sand are playing

Girl's burning up on hot sunny days
Without acknowledging the damage from the rays

I am sat on this wall at my favourite place
A thinking haven, my sacred space

I am battling my darkness
Sad eyes staring out to sea opposing the bad friends that call out to me

Analysing everything little that is said or done
Keeping my boundaries undone

Sitting here until acceptance of my own mind
My perspective and insight is no longer blind
