Backyard of My Mind
There is a place within my mind
A place were no one else can find
The beauty of this lovely place
Is something that can never be erased
No hurt or pain or fear is there
Just lots of love, joy and care
The sky is always painted blue
With rainbows in every color too
Birds of every kind and size
That sing so lovely as they fly by
The land is full of the kindest things
And sky has a moon that sings
It's mystical and magical
A place where fairies play
I sit and watch
Never having to run away
If I should want a mountain there
With snow upon the peaks
I've but to close my eyes
And in one sneaks
With water falls of sparkle blue,
Yellow, purple and lilac too
I pick and choose the flowers
And dwell there for hours
There is no time or age you see
For there is only me
I am one, two or maybe three
But no one knows or sees those with me
The pain is deep, the heart is broke
Is there no hope
Without this place of beauty I see
How could life ever be
My only prayer is
That someday, someone
Would understand me or we
Until someone comes
I will drift to and fro
In and out of this place we know
Where is this place
It's in the uttermost part of our minds
A place where only some can find
It's in the backyard of my heart and mind
