Two precious hours
That’s what I’ve bought for today.
The door closes on their eager laughter
and their smiles and kisses,
and they run away with my heart.
I turn to greet myself and smile
The darkness fades as the walls turn to glass,
and in minutes I’m the Queen of Infinite Space,
The Lady of the Silent Moments.
In two hours my money will be spent
they’ll return with their treasures and hugs.
I’ll force my heart down my throat again
and rip myself off my body
so it’s not crushed by the noise and the colours.
