my house is a sanctuary.. providing me with calm and peace when i need it.. infusing a sense of rest and quiet when the world outside rages on without regret for its actions.. shielding me from harsh reality the moment i step into its boundaries.. where my own little world slowly surrounds me with its earnest aura.. evil thoughts are purged from my mind as the heartbeat slows to a comfortable trot.. clarity sinks in as the world is revealed to me through a porthole from a ship bound for paradise and i am safe once again..
