Fast and Free

My life has changed. This all feels so strange. I don't know how much longer it will remain. How can I break these chains. I just want to fly away, fast and free. I got what I thought I wanted. Caught up in life. Caught with strife. I can see myself missing you. It's something I denied so long. I burn to hold you, To feel your breath on my skin. You'll never know how bad it feels, To know I'll never win. I watch you from a distance. From the corner of my eye. I can't let them know why. I have to hide my thoughts and visions, For surely, they would think me strange. I want to lose myself in you, To become the one I truly am. To open up, Like a bird from it's nest. I just want to fly away, fast and free.
