ESCAPE

Sometimes there is nothing more that I want to do
Than escape
Escape from a job that is turning my brain into mush
Escape from school because it is holding me hostage
Escape from my mother’s four walls that I am much too large for
Escape from this city that limits me
Escape from my family that is sometimes forgets my role
Escape from my past that sometimes haunts me,
From my present that is never satisfied,
And from a future that seems like it will never get here
Escape from my body that is imperfect
Escape from my mind that over thinks everything
Escape from my heart that never listens to me
Escape from time because there is never enough
Escape from responsibility because I can’t live up to everyone’s expectations
Escape from plans because they stress me out
Escape from my life that sometimes feels like it is draining me…
of EVERYTHING
But alas I am stuck
With nowhere to run
