Close my eyes to drift
silently away
to a place where I wish
I could stay.
Where my worries vanish
without trace
and all my dreams
take their place.
Here I can feel like I belong,
a world where my
mind and body are strong.
Smiling faces
greet me as I arrive
making me realise
what it is to be alive.
Not like the real world
where everything is a task
and where
everyone hides
their true feelings
behind a mask.
No one here has to live by rules
or implement
the stupid demands of fools.
For a brief while this is
my escape
from the day to day trials
of the human race.

Somewhere over the rainbow?
