comfort zone



I wish you were here now
I wish somebody saved me from
my comfort zone
I can't get out

Lost inside a room
inside a room
home
a miniature world
reflection of outside
reality

I wish you were here now
I wish somebody saved me from
my comfort zone

calming down a while
resting against
doors
never meant to

by the animals that live
inside

I wish you were here now

standing on solid legs
we wait to fuel fires
in a slow storm
remembering
the life of trees

I wish somebody saved me from

Talking to myself when
talking to you
silently
way too shy to call
I mumble
retreat

My comfort zone

Unable to cope
with this life
too slow
the pace outside
way too fast in
an opposite direction

I wish you were here now
wish somebody saved me from
my comfort zone

Emotions drain away
leaving unrest
anxiety
disorder numbed
by daily chores
a compulsive routine

I wish you were here
now I can't get out

Unable to get up
inside this mind
too lazy to
think any further
into dreams
fueling energy

I wish somebody
saved me

Hope flattened
a memory of
better times
vitality
acting on impulse

I can't
