My Private Sanctuary

My Private Sanctuary 

What can man allow in his brief years that may pass his way
 A humble abode by which to bow the knee to pray
 The long innocent talk we have with our creator
 The walk in the dark to visit the refigerator
 There's signs all around us each and every day
 A challenge to be set free is a heart beat away
 Let us meet together to discuss what will happen in the future
 A table to keep your reading glasses on with your favorite beverage 
 In my private sanctuary it is more then therapy
 Long lines written in the sand when will we understand
 No stereo or television drama not even a call from mamma
 The smell of lavender amidst it's cool brisk setting
 What we don't see may not necessarily be a reality
 A man set out on a mission to cultivate brevity
 Torn from the inside out we hide behind walls with no ceiling
 The brief moments that I spend will keep my head on it's level
 Nature beckons a call asunder is it any wonder we have to much time
 A black hole in the sun will unleash the lion exposed
 Laughter is a cure all medicine with an added smile
 Still to know all the great while all my dreams exposed in my private throne
 Like a cold clap in the dark you lit the inner spark to what I was waiting for
