The Escape

Strong mug of coffee before me

 Steady swirl of steam ascending

Warming me as I sip it slowly
A good supply, never ending

                                           Waking me up, keeping me going

After the drive through the night

Escaping, leaving all the pain
I know what I had to do was right

Heart pounding, pulse rate running high
Forever watchful of what`s around
Frightened, not knowing the future
A sudden look, when I hear a sound

Must steady myself for the escape
There`s a need for me to get away
I know I`ve done the right thing now
This is the new start from today!

A good mug of coffee set you up for all the things that life
will throw at you, whether they are good or bad!
