My Safe Space

July 4, 2024

A small clearing
protected by trees
sunlight filtering in
warm and safe

A creek trickles through
birds chirp overhead
the wind rustles the leaves
peaceful and quiet

Maybe this place exists
hidden away by nature
giving shelter to those
that need it

A place like this
exists in my head
I go there when I need
a break from life

I know I can always find
warmth and safety
peace and quiet
safety and shelter

In my safe space
