I can think whatever I like

You can

My internal world is my sanctuary

It is

Nobody can see inside my head

No

My mind is free

I see you

About the Creator

Caroline Jane

CJ lost the plot a long time ago. Now, she writes to explore where all paths lead, collecting crumbs of perspective as her pen travels. One day, she may have enough for a cake, which will, no doubt, be fruity.
