A place of freedom.
Where happiness resides.
A place of light,
And of personal growth.
Where time is of no importance.
Where darkness is not known.
A sanctuary of peace,
That darkness cannot consume.
A special habitat for the soul.
Yet my special place has demons as well.
That carry concealed motives,
And cruel intentions.
To play with me,
And my deepset emotions.
Disguised as flowers,
Yet in a garden of evil they reside.
And I know not of them,
Until it is too late.
And I am already damned,
To waste my happiness,
On such an evil,
As fake, plastic flowers.

There are so many fake, plastic flowers in life. Don't let them fool you, and don't waste your happiness admiring them.< !signature-->

I love the message at the end. What a kicker.

"Yet my special place has demons as well" I know this too well. Interesting line.

Feel the same a StarrGazer. Appearances and words can be deceiving.

  Your words, like plastic flowers
  no meaning, no life, no smell
  only to deceive my trusting heart
  as you cast your evil spell

Your poem was interesting to read.

So many fake things, so many fake people, so many fake souls..... The world is so fake, but if your soul is not fake, the real will shine through. I like this poem, interesting. Much love, One love, PEACE
