    GRAY MATTER

     IT EXISTS, THIS PLACE "I" CREATED,

    THIS OTHER WORLD, THIS FAR OFF LAND.

    IN MY MIND "I" CAN FEEL IT,

     TO ME IT IS SO REAL,

    COME TAKE MY HAND.

     

    I KNOW YOU THINK I'M CRAZY,

    YOU THINK I'VE GONE INSANE,

    BUT THIS PLACE IT’S MY ESCAPE,

    FROM MY REALITY, FROM ALL THIS PAIN!

     

     I GO THERE NOW SO OFTEN,

    I'TS WHERE "I" LEAVE TO ESCAPE,

    ESCAPE LIFE, WITH ALL ITS LIES AND PAIN,

    BECAUSE THERE, “I” CHOOSE MY FATE.

     

     

    SEE ALL THE MONSTERS THERE;

    THEY ARE UNDER MY COMMAND.

    IN THIS OTHER WORLD THAT "I" HAVE CREATED,

    IN THIS FAR, FAR OFF LAND.

     

     IN THE GRAY MATTER OF MY MIND,

    WHERE THERE IS NO SENSE OF TIME,

    THIS IS MY REALITY,

    NO MORE DARKNESS, ONLY SUNSHINE.

     

    I FEEL IT, AND MY SENSES SOAR,

    AS I EXPERIENCE MY SECRET PLACE,

     OVER AND OVER, I GO THERE,

    NOT SURE HOW MUCH MORE REALITY I CAN TAKE!

     

    THIS PLACE WHERE NOTHING BAD EVER HAPPENS,

    THAT’S MINE AND MINE ALONE,

     WHERE I NEVER WANT TO LEAVE AGAIN,

    BECAUSE TO ME IT FEELS LIKE HOME.

    I like this poem about how you go to a point in your mind where you are safe and free. The pain of reality can be to much to bare and to escape to one's own secret place can make life bearable. I think this is well written and full of life.

    thank u....... i think sometimes we all need to escape from something, life isnt perfect, and its good to have a way to release and let go and free ur mind even if just for a short time!

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
