Description
What I would give to be free
of the misery that is me
to walk out the door, dog in tow
and never look back at this place
I've so long known, in that moment
I would be, at last, gone
to be who I should be, in the end
not trapped by the mind and its agony
or limited by this old, tired, thing
I call my body. I would, at last
be gone--to wherever the dead
do roam and explore.
Yet in that I'd lose all that might
be here, and I've not yet seen
all there is to see, or do,
in this world, I long to leave.
So I wait, and wish, that
change would come, to unleash
me from my burdens just enough
so that I could make my dreams real
and feel what I feel
all for myself, as I need,
and wish to share
with so many others
also trapped in here
with me, in this world
and state of madness
we call living.
