Secluded inside my music,
At peace with the beat,
Every note and harmony
It takes me away, far away
To a place where things are okay,
Where all wrongs are righted,
Where there's no yelling and fighting
Within moments my mind has changed,
From a swarming mess
To utter peacefulness
There's now a rock concert playing in my head,
Though it's so crazy,
It totally calms me
I continue walking on,
Passing kids in the hall,
Not comprehending them at all
They're probably annoyed by my therapy,
Not noticing my tranquility
I dred to take my earphones out,
It brings back all of my fears
And all of my doubt
It takes me back,
Back to the real world
Where I sit, trying not to be afraid
Repetitively every day,
Where I can't wait for the ring of the bell
To bring my mind out of its inexplainable hell.
