When the world comes crashing down I close my eyes.
I let all the troubles on my mind slip away into the sky.
I envision a place of pure calm, where my body and mind find peace.
A crisp breeze that blows across my face whisking the salt away with it.
The scent of a forest behind me with the sounds of waves crashing down in front.
The ground beneath me soft and welcoming.

Closing my eyes lets me smile – lets me travel to a place far away.
I dream the dreams of many dreams I find to be sincere and sweet.
Though the reality will always be the same, I can be whoever or do whatever in a world of my own making.
No matter how much it hurts, how much pain I feel and the agony I withstand.
When I close my eyes, I let all that melt away from.
