Coffee Shop Sessions

curled up in the comfort of your room,

a tapping upon your door begins

calling you to answer

and you…

retreat
back into your hollow cave

retreat
back to the sheltered space you’ve made

retreat
from the idea that anyone will ever come to your door

retreat
from searching what’s drifting along the shore

retreat
from the ghost that haunt us all

retreat
from what hurts us all

escape
from that dark tidal wave

escape
from the corner of the world you’ve made

escape
stretch out your arms for what’s behind the closed door

escape
seeking to break the distance between you and the shore

escape
it’s time to get out and stop all the fuss

escape
it may be possible to trust

again…
