~In Control~

Sometimes vines like to take over.
They grow and grow, encasing me in a chamber woven green.
A sanctuary full of my hopes and dreams,
Memories of memories, imagined long ago.

I let these vines wind around me,
My legs, my arms, my torso.
They spread warmth I once knew throughout my brain,
My mind goes limp.

The darkness cannot reach me here,
Not in my earthen sanctuary.

I won't let it reach me here.
I won't let it touch me.
I won't be engulfed by its fiery jaws.
It resides not with me, but I.

And I am not allowed inside my vine woven sanctuary.

I'm in control.

I'm in control.

Hello, and thank you for stopping by! I tried a shorter poem this time for something different, and I found it actually more enjoyable to write! So I might be doing some shorter poems for a while to see how it goes. Do you guys like to read shorter or longer poems? Just curious!

Thanks for readin'!
