Oh, I could hide 'neath the wings...

Sometimes it would be so nice to just hide and find some place where you can be safe and protected; where no one and no thing could get you.  Some place you could stay until the ache in your heart has subsided.  You wish you could put your kids there too.  Sometimes the world is just an awful place to be.  Sometimes I find solace in just being able to put one foot in front of the other.
