Wanting To Get Away..

Ripping and pulling at my hair
The sounds that break the air
I cannot bear to stand further
Wanting to scream,
Scream until my voice gives away and becomes nothing but a forgotten whisper

I want to break the strings that tie me down
Crawl away from this place
Take the first steps into independence
Find my own sense of place

Do not get me wrong
I cherish the zone I possess now
Hanging onto the only place I have that I can truly call MINE
It has been like a security blanket for so long
It's almost all I know

My zone,
The only place secluded from the madness
Only vicinity, which I can hold onto my sanity
The only space to hide all the wonders of me
Where I can show my true colors and no is there to judge
All my innermost thoughts and secrets are held here

Various reflection notebooks and stars
Sentiments, gifts, toys, valuables, trinkets, notes, stuffed wonders and knowledge
Coinciding in one small area

Wishing to get away so desperately
But I have yet to find a suitable way to leave

My home, my place, my turf
The place I lay at rest at night
Forever grateful that I got the chance to live here

    Excellent write, you should be very proud to have your own little place that you can call home, we are never truly happy until we are satisfied but having a place to call home is a very good start
