&quot;The creative is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you&#039;ll discover will be wonderful. What you&#039;ll discover is yourself.&quot;<br /> - Alan Alda

Keep quiet, act composed, and you might just drift away
Drift into the city streets, the baby blue skies, the hard rock beat
Where no one knows you, nothing matters anymore
It's called the bliss of drifting away, of being unseen
Slipping slowly down deeper, deeper, deeper 'til you're underground
With the soft soil that stifles and suffocates and nurtures your soul
Let yourself go, and simply drift away

Wow, this is really...kinda, haunting. I have looked over some of your other writings and I think you write beautifully - easy to understand, somewhat sad, but with talents. Keep writing!!!!
