I relish it.
It's beautiful,
And it's mine.
Solitude is not bad either.
I dwell in it.
Because there, everything is real and honest and true.
There is no pretending or disguising or second guessing.
There is just me.
Only me.
And that is fine.
I sing and listen.
I daydream and scheme.
I indulge in make-believe and fairy tales.
It's my freedom.
And I inhale it.
Because I cannot go anywhere else.
My mind is my escape.
And mine alone.

| There is definitely something to be said for solitude. It's not a bad thing. And I find when I pull into myself a little I'm calmer an happier. Miss you! |

| Lovely poetry, hun. I hope you are well. Miss you! Everyone needs their escape. Mine is to paint in a empty silent house. |
