The place that saved my life and soul

I'm exactly where i'm supposed to be.

I lazily muse as i stare up at the trees.

Hidden in my little fort where the world can't bother me.

Tucked safely under natures wing , she protects and comforts me.

'You'll need more" i hear their doubts as they look around the scene.

They doubt i can be happy or get through the seasons here.

They look at me with pity and with judgement in their eyes

And they whisper to each other on how i've lost my mind.

But for the first time in forever i feel so fully sure....

That i'm exactly where i'm meant to be , that in my home i'll find my cure.

I just need to wake each morning and hear the birds sing loud

And to see the views outside my room that make me gasp in awe.

To step into my garden and be greeted by wild creatures, to feel completely free.

So for me you need not fret or stress , my fort to you may not impress but i don't desire the same as you.

I just want a safe space to be me and at ease.

So believe me when i express my truth

That this space , this wild place is exactly where i'm meant to be.

You don't know how I could relate to that poem As a tru Introvert
I feel safe , full and most interested at home , what's wrong with that? Why you need to be "Normal" if you love to go out ?

thank you for reading it :) i don't think there is anything wrong with that at all. each person to their own , i love my own space and being outside and i have absolutely no desire to be normal either just left in peace to do what i please :)
