Sanctuary

Back to Dragon Child

My mind is not safe from the harm I have seen,
I twist and I turn but these images are not a dream.
I hope deep down that my world will stay serene,
But it’s hard when inside of me I want to scream.
My body fears if I will burn for not being in care,
For not seeking help when I needed it most near.
I feel destruction when I take a breath from the air,
It’s as if I saw darkness coming to me crystal clear.

I need sanctuary to let my soul feel a bit more secure,
I need a place of peace to find in me a sense of cure.
I need moments with time to know that I more mature,
I need strength if I am to become my very own savior.
So many things I need which has to do with nature,
I need so much of knowledge to understand the picture.
So many drops of tears to finally catch the creature,
It’s nothing what I wished yet I found my adventure.

My heart is lost not knowing what in the end to expect,
Even if I walk most graciously, don’t think I am perfect.
I want a sacred place where this part of me is protected,
But beautiful moments will not always be well reflected.
My world longs for some purity from the sun to the water,
Yet I should shelter myself from the wounds in my corner.
Sanctuary; those from the wilds no longer can go further,
Not until they know they are safe to go back as a warrior.
