Array ( [sid] => 186178 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Sanctuary [time] => 2019-04-29 17:15:51 [hometext] => [bodytext] => the world around me is crumbling
I watch the ones I love stumbling
foundations cracking
progress backtracking

but at the end of the day
I meet you in our secret place
where our roots dig down deep into the earth
you are my favourite place to be
the greatest view my eyes can see
you’ve breathed new life into my soul’s rebirth

and I always find sanctuary in your gentle embrace
you smile at me and I know I’ve found my home here in this place

all the jokers dressed up as kings
the buried lies and vicious stings
mean nothing to me
‘cause with you I’m free

and when it all crashes down
I’ll be here and you’ll come around
I always find my peace there where you are
so high above the world we sleep
as into you I dive so deep
I feel you with every pulse of my heart

and I have never before been the person I am today
never before has the ground under me not fallen away
‘cause I have never been the one holding onto something good
never before have I wanted to stay in the place I stood [comments] => 3 [counter] => 115 [topic] => 2 [informant] => MoonlitAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LovePoetry )
