Drean of a Tangled Secret Path

I dream of a path running behind houses that can only be accessed by a twisting alleyway. The gardens to the right are set on top of a slope. The gardens are overgrown and tangled. Forgotten places, shadowed by huge trees. The person I am with has known this path for an age - he used to live in one of the houses. The path itself is tangled with yellow grass and weeds. A narrow path through undergrowth. Someone (there may be three of us) says that this is an 'attack-path' as if we were attacked here we would have nowhere to run to. I imagine drug addicts coming here for the solitude. I am a little concerned, but the forlorn atmosphere of the place appeals to me.
