Vacation

by allidoiswrite82   Feb 7, 2008


I'm going on vacation

taking time away from the street cars

and modern day lifestyle that I have grown so accustom to

I've packed my bags with emptiness

jealously, worry and anger

you wont be accompanied me on the venture

no, you get to stay home and house sit

as for me I'm be leaving on a jet plane

with no carry on luggage

no baggage once so ever

just me and perhaps a raincoat

it tends to get windy during these brainstorms

I locked away my anger in a storage unit

and purposely lost the key

he definitely wont be joining me

I can breathe a little easier knowing these feelings

have no boarding pass

so hugs and waves at the terminal

so long emotional roller-coaster

I'm gonna recline my seat from the upright position

unlock my tray table and welcome serenity

I secretly snuck her onto the plane

inside of a hidden pocket in my wallet

far from the eyes of the other emotions

that thought they would be invited as well

little did I know that serenity was joined by peace and comfort

while I took time to find my relaxation

frustration sat in front of me

mocking and tormenting peace

after I finally separated the two

I saw doubt and fear sitting directly across from me

not wanting to draw attention to myself

I didn't speak to them

yet I could feel them lingering at me

the stewardess brought me tranquility

but envy pissed him off

and at my second request for calmness

"Sorry but we are all out till you get off"

my vacation hadn't turned out quite the way

it should have

no matter where I found myself

I could not escape my feelings

Welcome Home
