A Closed Eye

The outside world frightens me

it lays in wait for the perfect moment

when death steals my life

it will stand over my lifeless remains

with a clean smirk on its face

but I never plan on giving it the satisfaction

I have retreated into my shelter and will never leave

the solitude of my safeguarded shelter

soothes my soul

I wouldn’t dare break the silence

by stepping a foot into the in the remote abyss

I’ve herd the world steady moves and changes

never leaving any signs of directions

abandoning us, without a tear

my shelter stays my refuge

I relish its warmth, and affection

having it is my greatest luxury

I would never give it up

even if they took my world away
