To Leave

To go, to run, to leave
I wish to go, to run, to be
Leaving where I am in misery
The place where all my memories bleed
Cold runs through my veins
Insane as I have been left in
The small place a town constant
Reminders of how much I spent
Time on those and things that were
Never meant for my future
A fate that was left to be destroyed
Mindset pushed antagonized annoyed
Leaving please a leaving to go 
Where freedom is all I will know
On this day to leave is a must
Remembering the family I used to have of love
Loving those times not these currently
Praying and wishing I could leave
Without a care lost all dreams
Obscenely seeking what I wish
To leave to that destination
No where fast anywhere soon
A place where my heart may moon 
Unite with day and succumb to night
I wish I could just leave and start a life

Perhaps you are the only one holding yourself back.

It is true. I hold myself back by not having much accomplished in the past 10 years after graduating high school. After different life events have placed a mental block on my capabilities as well as finically. I am not completely lost yet I would rather find my hermit hole and gladly succumb to a life of solitude. Hope you are having a nice day.
