~~~~
I come inside and lock the door
The outside world can’t bother me no more
In the comfort of my own loving home
The trouble of the world are far less known

I’m in control of my own domain
Where it’s safe and dry and free from rain
Pain and strife free, for I don’t let it in
On the doorstep is where it begins and ends

Only positive thinking enters my door
Outside influences we try to ignore
My own private heaven is inside these walls
And only loved ones walk through the halls

You are welcome to enter just simply knock
Shelter from the storm, it’s like an ark
But remember what I said before you start
You can only enter with the purest of heart

Beautiful poem wished I had thought like this many years ago. I would not be in the hell hole I'm in now. Because my friend unfortunately there are only two choices hell and heaven. I've created my hell, but slowly I'm turning that around and reading your poem gives me hope. Thank you.
