Dim light
Pen and paper in my hand
A cup of beside me
This is my paradise
Calm soothing breaths
Sips of tea flowing through my body
The pen and paper come in contact
This is my paradise
Together they begin to tell a story
The room is getting darker
My eyes are droopy
This is my paradise
The room is pitch black
The cup of tea is empty
The story is finished
This is my paradise
My head settles into the pillow
My body is covered with a soft blanket
I am now asleep
This is my paradise

I was sitting in my room, and I was having one of the most relaxing times of my life. I figured that it was so good that I just had to write about it, so I did!

It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
