Everyone in the world
Loves to hide
From emotions
Problems
Both big and small
Even for fun
Each of us has
A security blanket of sorts
Yours might be cozy in your bed
Or wrapped in the arms of a loved one
Perhaps even going far, far away
Or getting high
Mystery is my hiding place
I hide behind the veil of shadow
The mist of purpose
My feelings untraceable
to the human touch
To show me
Is to give something away
that I can't bare to do
I seek refuge within my own
energy field
shrinking from ordinary people
because to bring those walls down
means someone's trying to get in
Whether to hurt me or not
I do not know
Mystery is my hiding place
it gives me my unique dimension
above the average mortal soul
It guides me above the pain
beyond the uncertainty
toward a future of questions
As I close my eyes
and face the unknown
yet again
I wonder if my hiding place
is really a safe haven
or is it in fact
a hindrance.
For I've walked in the valley
hand in hand
hidden behind that mystic veil
It has brought me some measure of peace
That I cannot find within a human
Or at least
haven't found yet
I cover my face up in an enigmatic fog
day to day
week after week
year in year out
I show only as much as I dare
no one has touched inside everything
for...
Mystery is my hiding place
As I close the curtains to the world
For yet another night
My soul flies to a place where
all will be good in the world
and easy....
For ever and for always
surrounded by the shroud of
Mystery
