Inspiration
Gentle exploration of my mind,
A calling to inspiration.
Making me open up and think,
Searching for an explanation
Of why I turned off,
Of why I gave up,
Of why I let the pain win.
I search within myself,
Trying to soothe my ills
and create a place where I am safe
Maybe for the first time in my life,
Maybe the last,
But at least a momentary solace from the games
From the pain hidden within.
