Into the safety of imagination where I retreat the incessent drums of society no longer beat, and the world becomes my own creation where I retreat into the safety of imagination I'd rather dwell inside a wondrous dream and dance within the sacred stream than live outside in man-made hell, inside a wondrous dream I'd rather dwell So the doctors diagnosed me, I have a mental sickness, but they're the ones who really suffer thickness while I can simply lock the door and lose the key; I have a mental sickness, so the doctors diagnosed me.

oh so well written...a bit of surrealism or fantasy in your delightful, flowing words. Creative and a fabulous contest contender. Hope you have a pleasant evening, Sara
