There was a place I used to go As a kid where no one would know It kept me calm and collected Behind the fence, In the apartment complex I sat next to a stream as it flowed past This was my wonderland I yearn to go back there and stand Feel the air, and let go of all care I never told anyone about my escape It was meant for safekeeping Not for others to be seeking I want to go back, let it soothe what I lack Its not that far from where I lay But age has taken time and care It wont feel the same as it used to bare Accept what was woven, you were right Holden
