A Yorkshire Poet Poet Free verse

Stay Safe In Your Own Mind

Ever wake up in the wrong place?

Ever wake up with the wrong face?

Ever wake up in the wrong time?

Ever wake up in the right time?

Ever see life for what it really is?

Ever hide away in contented bliss?

Scared of you'll find out there?

Behind the curtain, all that human stare!

Human kind, strange yet polite!

Secrets hidden behind smiling eyes

Lies of truths owned and owed

Lines in faces betraying stories untold

You can speak to a stranger without saying a single word

Sometimes that's better than when words are heard?

Say hello, say goodbye, human time will pass by.

Life can change in the blink of an eye

Minds can break without any reasons for why

Stay trapped in your own mind?

Stay safe in your own time?

Stay trapped in your own time?

Stay safe in your own mind?

Ever wondered.....WHY??
