The princess fell asleep. She closed her eyes and fell on pretend sleep to have a quiet moment with her own mind. To run in the forest of her own thoughts. The princess closed her eyes to dream, not to sleep.

She needed peace more than noise She would escape voices, the talking, the constant non-stop talking. At least if she closed her eyes, they wouldn’t talk to her. It’s not that she didn’t like them or didn’t like to talk. But that she needed peace. Maybe a bit more than others. Maybe a bit more than what is seen acceptable. So she escaped into this fake sleepy face, to get the peace her soul needed.
