MY ESCAPE


Slowly, ever so softly,
I tiptoe down the hall.

Listening to the pouring rain,
and watching the night fall.

Gently, I open the sliding door,
and step inside the room.

The eeriness surrounds me,
as if I opened a tomb.

Slowly, ever so softly,
I tiptoe across the floor.

I grope my way around the dark,
and feel my heart greatly soar.

Finally, I feel the cold hard bench,
and ease myself upon.

I lay my hands upon the ivory,
close my eyes, and play a song.
