I forget the world I once had as a child that grew<\/p>\n
The imagination that was created in the world’s that I wrote<\/p>\n
At a time when escaping the world around me was a better choice<\/p>\n
When things where different and the world was simpler<\/p>\n
As long as the time was available and no one was around<\/p>\n
I escaped to a world that was all of my own<\/p>\n
A place that I could make things as I wanted<\/p>\n
In a time that I could lose minutes on top of hours on top of days<\/p>\n
My world was something that could help me and hinder me<\/p>\n
For the world that I create could be a place I could never leave<\/p>\n
From character to character and day to day<\/p>\n
Once I was inside and caught the outside world would just melt away<\/p>\n
As to why I left that world I will never know<\/p>\n
And the more I try the less of the world I see<\/p>\n
To become lost in a world that was once me<\/p>\n
When can I find my true self<\/p>\n
And where will I be when that world comes crashing on me<\/p>\n
I wait for the waves that once over came me<\/p>\n
That closed around me and invaded everything I was<\/p>\n
For the creativity that was once my whole world<\/p>\n
Where will my creativity come from and when<\/p>\n
I am ready for wave upon wave\u00a0of worlds to create<\/p>\n
And for a time that I can lose minutes upon hours upon days<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
