A World Within

This sunlit room may have seen my yesterday 
But today is a never ending spring of ideas 
My old window or should I say looking glass
Knew the old, bent me
This space I’m in reminds me to keep steady on firm ground 
To close the blinds when the sun shines too bright 
When the lives of others suffocates me 
This room knows chaos
From tears that have no name 
To tears just happy to be in a new place 
Oh, maddening ways
This sunlit room seems to be a poets dream or a readers race 
See, the looks I give speak volumes 
And somehow they all know I can’t be bothered 
To them it is a sunlit room
For myself, I see a world within
