My Escape
To escape for a few minutes-
 That is bliss
 To have a friend ready in seconds-
 That is my wish
 
 And with her I have it-
 A place to escape
 A place where I’m not judged-
 A place for serenity’s sake
 
 I leave this world-
 I go to my imagination
 I become my friend-
 I live my intentions
 
 I forget what I do-
 All I know is her
 I forget what happens-
 I’m her for hours
 
 I fake a laugh-
 I fake a smile
 But during that time-
 I’m gone all the while
 
 She takes away my pain-
 She’s a soothing voice
 I know without her-
 I’ll die without a choice
 
 She takes care of me-
 She walks my shoes
 And all the while-
 I take care of her too
 
 For that is friendship-
 That is why I give
 That is love-
 That is why live
