There is a place -
A place where things once dull
Are inexplicably illuminated from within
A place where each breath
Upon filling the lungs, yields awakening.
At first, this place seems distant,
Held hostage in some far off land -
But through surrender we soon discover
This place lies just round the bend.
Yes, there is a place -
A place where true joy
is not supplementary but instead necessity
A place where defeat from burdens
becomes but a thing of the past.
Pause long enough and finally claim
this place as home at last.
