Sanctuary of Solace

Take me to my happy place,

Where silence wraps around me like a comforting embrace,

In an empty meadow under the wide open sky,

One single tree standing tall, a sentinel of time gone by.

Give me a good book, a portal to another world,

Where I can lose myself, let my worries unfurl.

When life gets hard and the storm clouds gather,

Take me to my happy place, where nothing else matters.

Let me wander through pages of fantasy and lore,

Where dragons soar and heroes implore.

Let me sit beneath that tree, my sanctuary and shield,

Where every word I read becomes a sword I wield.

Take me to my happy place,

Where the whispers of the wind are a gentle lullaby,

Where the sun paints the sky with hues of gold,

And time moves slow, with stories yet untold.

Give me the sound of waves crashing on the shore,

A symphony of nature that I can't ignore.

The smell of rain on dry earth, a promise renewed,

A reminder that even in darkness, life is imbued.

Take me to my happy place,

Where laughter echoes in the corridors of my mind,

Where joy is abundant and sorrow is blind.

The inch you give, the mile they take,

Will never be as long as the distance we make.

The distance between truth and deceit,

Between the ground beneath and the skies at our feet.

It's the space between heartbeats, a breath held in pause,

The quiet strength in standing up for a cause.

Take me to my happy place,

Where the moon hangs like a lantern in the night,

Casting a gentle glow, a silver light.

Where dreams are free to roam and hearts are light,

And every star is a wish taking flight.

Give me the sound of children's laughter,

The purest joy that nothing can alter.

The warmth of a hug from a dear friend,

A moment of peace that has no end.

Take me to my happy place,

Where the melody of life plays in perfect harmony,

And every note is a step towards serenity.

Where the battles fought and the scars we bear,

Are badges of honor, proof that we dare.

When the world becomes too heavy, too hard to face,

I disassociate from reality, find my escape.

In that meadow, under the tree, my mind takes flight,

Away from the chaos, into the night.

The inch you give, the mile they take,

Will never be as long as the distance we create.

The distance between what was and what will be,

Between the past's shadow and future's glee.

Take me to my happy place,

Where love is the language and kindness the creed,

Where every soul finds what they need.

A world where we rise, together we stand,

Hand in hand, across this beautiful land.

Take me to my happy place,

Where hope is a river that flows endlessly,

And every struggle is met with empathy.

Where the inch we give and the mile they take,

Is just a part of the journey, a path we make.

So take me there, to that tranquil space,

Where every heartache finds its grace.

In that empty meadow, under the tree's embrace,

Let me find solace, let me find my happy place.
