The Escapist

How long the days have grown
So far away from what I’ve known
Hope is lost but almost found
Now my feet won’t touch the ground
Soaring through the sky; carried by a dream
Pondering my endless life long scheme

So tired of living up to everyone elses expectations
The time has come to create a new nation
Creep the crevices of the world and beyond
Never knowing not remembering where I’m from
New legends erupt from delicious whispers
Into a world where boldness thrives and he always kisses her
Ancient pyramids resurrected without reason or rhyme
The thoughtless, senseless beginning of time

Living my life while knowing no cost
Wandering the world but never lost
No memories to speak of; blissfully bare
Relishing the vividness of lingering stares
Sunset erupts the horizon; life's in technicolor
The vision grows bright but then smaller and smaller
Starts bleat consciousness snatching away all light
I dare to dream of the delectable sight
Forever plaguing all my nights

Everything's in the open; no run for cover
Except perhaps the arms of a lover
My destiny is mine to mold and reshape
Twisting and turning and plotting  my escape
