There are just times when the world gets too fast for me
too loud to hear my own thoughts
too harsh for the little girl inside me
so then i escape for a few moments
to my secret hideaway
sometimes it's the library,
or it could be the plush bathroom, warm bookstore,
neighborhood coffee shop,
or even my own room.
No matter where,
time seems to stop
and i'm able to remind myself that
things aren't always as bad as they seem.
