This Place

When I was a child
I had a place to hide
I haven't been there in a while
But still I remember it so well
Nobody else was allowed inside
It's location I would never reveal or tell
I ran to it when I was scared
Sometimes I would sit there the entire night
I ran to it when I thought you didn't care
It's where I spent most of my days
Sometimes it was the only place that felt right
It was in this place I so long stayed
But I realize its something I don't have to do
Also I realize that this place is in my mind
Only created to escape from you

Zoya Zaidi
Somewhere Winfry Operah said that our greatest fear is our own fear!
Yes, we all need a safe haven to hide, sometimes, to protect ourselves instinctively from the big bad world...
And the moment that you overcome your fears is the greatest achievement in life!

(((Thanks for this very honest and reflective piece))))

Welcome to the Bay!
Love,
Zoya
