"SYDNEY THE SANCTUARY: A Temporary Escape"

Written 2018-05-17

They said I should’ve stayed longer

Perhaps it’s true

You’ve made me feel better

I owe it all to you

It’s the place where I could be

no one but me

No suffocations

No social demands

Hopefully I can come back

to stay even longer

but first, I must catch up

with what I still lack

to prepare for my future.
