I love to seclude myself in my childhood existence
away from the grown-up screams of living
I can focus on my surroundings
where that beautiful sound of well loved memories
open their worn strings of completion ~
whispering stories to each other.
I'm part of their world
where the racket and fuss of reality fades into the background.
