Fictional Worlds

I don't want to get lost in fictional worlds anymore The one I am surrounded with The one in my head It is already too much to store Immersed, overwhelmed, drowned In the ocean of emotions That engulfs me every time I open a page of a book I get sucked into these lands Devoid of the notions of time and space I explore these worlds as a baby would Eyes wide, curious, hungry for knowledge For the thrill of leaving reality behind and getting consumed by my imagination Meanwhile, my brain gets flooded with bizarre concoctions They sow their seeds deep into my memory And then blossom recklessly Wither and die, do some The others live/grow with me forever.
