'Where In The Mind Is It Safe To Go? Poem by Linda Winchell

Where in the mind is it safe to go?
Uncovering memories of long ago.
Hurt and pain that you had long forgot
of a time you wish return to, or maybe not.

Releasing ideas and those thoughts
of what your minds woven web has caught.
Taking one or two out at a time
absorbing those moments you've stored in your mind.

Some memories bring pain, welling up again
others may bring feelings, love for that long lost friend.
Whatever the case might be for you
Where in the mind will that be safe to do?

Sort very carefully, what your mind has stored
there may be much less, then there may be much more?
The impact received, may have your futures deep effect
of what your mind has stored, and now needs to forget.
