My soul craves silence

Occasionally

Temporary seclusion

Escape from reality

I have a retreat 

Carved by imagination

Specifically created

For peaceful contemplation

Far from material world

Noise, responsibility 

Endless demands

Mind numbing cacaphony

Where my spirit breathes

Solitude's invigorating air

Replenishes depleted energy

Receives self love, tender care
