Goodbye. I Am Escaping.
10...9...8...
My time is short, the walls are no longer willing to stand
This world is fading fast, and there's nobody to grab my hand
Though it may be painful at first, the escape is what i need
This place lacerates my skin, devours my hopes
And as i try to grow, I am still caught growing in a field of weeds.
7...6...5...
Though this tree struggles to break free,
its roots are still buried deep in the hardened ground.
So as I try to pull them out, some parts will be lost; a lost part of me
But in a new place, I sincerely hope that more roots of connection can be found.
4...3...2...
The time is coming close for this man- no, this new creation
to find a new place to grow and survive,
I am starting to experience a lost feeling of elation
With a brand new start, I could never feel so alive!
1...
The time is here, I am ready to leave.
some of me feels joy, while the other is forced to grieve.
I am given a chance to be someone new, someone more whole
but take a moment for those i loved, and the moments they stole.
The first feeling of unrequited love, followed by an endless search to find
another who can make this man feel the same love; the perfect state of mind.
This journey, of course, has failed. It shrank, it withered away
It has pushed me to a point of emptiness where i can no longer bear to stay.
So here I am now: my things packed, my destination set
I want to say it's for new horizons, but in truth, i hope the distance can help me forget.
