in the sanctuary

I retreat
to the sanctuary
the place of
silence
there
the quiet
the solitude
provides a peace
to the mind
to the soul
to the heart
free from the burden
of life
to escape the
anxiety
sadness
disappointment
that overwhelms
my being
in the sanctuary
isolation
offers a moment
to focus
only on one person
myself
just for a moment
I
and
me
unite
with no distractions
in the sanctuary
nothing else matters
except
I
and
me
