"SYDNEY THE SANCTUARY: A Temporary Escape" in "RESTLESS: POETICALLY-SPEAKING"

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.
