An Escape

Whenever I feel down and depressed
I long for an escape 
But to where
The earth is too big 
To know where is a save place 
And too small 
To escape entirely from the sorrow
Everywhere is bribery, racism 
And hegemony prone
There isn't a save place without sorrow 
And happy forever
The heaven is still far far away
And the hell is out of consideration
Maybe leave it to fate
And please don't ever ask me why
