[hometext] => This is what happens when I close my eyes!
[bodytext] => Closing my eyes
I find a real dark place
If only I plug my ears
It would be added grace
The silence
The darkness
Together are the same
When I am lonely
It is my private game
If I meditate
For a long period of time
All the stress and burden
I can really feel unwind
When I try real hard
A figure or face I see
And not once ever
Has a figure or face been me
As it seems
I am trying to find my inner soul
Or just some real inner piece
To give me a new goal
Closing my eyes
Is my way of finding me
Even though my eyes are closed
I found I still can see
Visions are real
Figures are black and white
My eyes are closed
And yet I still have sight
It is a gift to me
Given from God above
The closer I get to my soul
I find a heart full of love
This game I play
To mend my stressed out mind
It helps me to find inner love
And to be of the loving kind
The figures and faces
I truly can see
It often makes me wonder
Why they come to me
Perhaps it’s another soul
Crying for someone’s help
If only my ears were not plugged
I might hear them yelp
I say yelp
Because it describes crying in pain
I think by now
You all must think I’m insane
So close your eyes
And see what you feel
Enter a world of darkness
And find your soul to heal.
