I Close My Eyes

There’s a place I often go, I close my eyes to feel it’s warmth; The love that is my home. There’s a happiness I own, I close my eyes to regain it’s awesomeness; The completeness that Is our hearts. There’s this love that belongs to me, I close my eyes to draw it nearer; The closeness that keeps my heart. There’s a darkness within my heart, I close my eyes to hide it’s coldness; The evil that lurks within. There’s a choice I have made, I close my eyes to forget the pain; The hurt that is so often revealed. There’s a hatred I know, I close my eyes to regret it’s strength; The possessiveness that it consumes. There’s a will within, I close my eyes to realize I’m stronger; This woman that is within me now! Rosemarie Schrock 5/29/11
