A locket, the Universe

I take a journey into another land.

Travel to long forgotten places.

Explore new worlds and meet new people.

I become an adventurer.

Travel? To long forgotten places?

I can even search the depths of my soul.

I become an adventurer-

And hold the universe in a locket

I can even search the depths of my soul

When I read a new story

And hold the universe in a locket

That's too precious so I keep it at home

When I read a new story

I make life long friends and

That's too precious, so, I keep it at home

Locked away in my room

I make life long friends and

Even some enemies when I travel 

Locked away in my room

They cannot hurt me

Even some. Enemies when I travel

Between the lines and pages, 

They cannot hurt me

And I mock them as I write a new story

Between the lines and pages

Is home. A safe place. Dangerous minds

And I mock them. As I write a new story

And keep the world in my locket.
