"Mesmerized"


Poem about escape.


"Here you'll be anyone you're not.
Here you'll know anyone you won't.
Here you'll touch anything you can't.
Here you'll see everything you don't.

Welcome sleep.
Worries drift away.
Breathe in deep.
Floating on the bay.
Feel the stress
Melting down your feet.
Close your eyes.
Drift down to the deep.
Feel the calm
Counting back from ten.
Deeper still
'Till you wake again.

Here you'll be anyone you're not.
Here you'll know anyone you won't.
Here you'll touch anything you can't.
Here you'll see everything you don't."
