At my moms house whenever I was upset, I used to escape to the area below the bottom deck. There I had a place to sit beside the creek and sing songs or listen to birds sing songs, or just watch nature and relax. I would sit there for hours untill I felt better and I ended up in such a good mood that it somehow fixed all the problems in my life for the time being.

Outside of my house

Below the bottom deck

Is my hiding place,

 

The trees all around

Guard me of my fears

And comfort me when crying,

 

Water swiftly moving

Right below my eyes

Relaxes all the tension in my body,

 

Sweet, chirping sounds

Ring in my ears

As birds sing along to my sadness,

 

When I talk to myself

Of my problems this night

The wind whispers soothingly in my ear,

 

As a new season approaches

My heart fills with sadness

For soon I will be on my own,

 

Ice cold air moves in

Soon it will kill and chase it away

So I guess I’ll have to wait till spring,

 

I wish not to leave

For four whole months

But I’ll come back soon hiding place.
