One Wish

I was quite out of breath running from you in my head so I kicked the powderpuff of dandelion seeds off its stem with my boot instead out there in the field that place so unnaturally peaceful that it can't possibly be real because reality is harsh a rough astroturf lawn with sharp edges and corners to stub your toe on when you're just trying to escape trying to find a place to be free a place like a field with wildflowers which... I guess is the kind of place you'd find me, failing an escape from reality kicking at the powderpuffs not bothering to make a wish except, well, maybe one like this: a wish to get you out of my mind one wish to finally leave you behind
