And so i pulled back the huge oak door that was attached to a grey brick wall that seemed to lead to nowhere and with a huge gasp i realised, much to my surprise where it lead...
There it was,
the place only my dreams and my mind could conjure,
the place where i knew i could be safe,
the place that was unlike any other i had seen,
and even more beautiful that my dreams.
Abundances of blooming red roses,
that little swing my dad had always made in the summer,
the family i had lost all too long ago,
and the mirror,
the mirror that no longer showed what i feared,
the mirror that told me i was whole again.
I knew that i this was meant for me,
like so many times in my dreams,
i walked up to the mirror and touched the freezing glass,
the girl was me,
my family were there,
my friends were there,
and i had the most amazing feeling,
i was free to start again,
to live again,
In heaven...where i always belonged.
