Analysis of Comfort For All



If only I had a Day~
  A Day so far away

Where sadness and pain~
  Could never find me

Where nothing is complete~
  And nothing is unfinished

Where worries and concerns~
  Could not surround me

Where peace is just a given~
  The fragrant smell of living

Where known is not unknown~
  And only Love exist amongst the brilliance

~
A place to be alone~
  Yet never be alone

Where loneliness is
  Completely nonexistent

That special place exists~
  I just must take a day

A day to go away~
  I do not need to go so very far

For deep within my heart and soul~
  I find the warmth and golden glow

Where God Lives~
  To comfort all his children

About this poem

This is where I go to get away from all that I can no longer handle. I hope everyone who reads this, gets a moment of comfort from All of the Evil that seems to be around us these days. We are all stronger than we know.
