My Space

The place I can be alone

Sometimes we need some time out

In a place we can be totally alone,

To regroup and assess one’s life

A special place we can call our own.

***

I often lay on my bed listening to music

And write of life, love, sadness and fear,

This space adorned with bright colours

My favourite special place is right here.

***

A weekend afternoon has passed by

And I have done very little to show,

Played some songs, read for awhile

And written of heartbreak and woe.

***

Darkness falls and I close my eyes

Falling into sleep so peacefully,

My space where I can be alone

My bedroom’s that space for me.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
