Walking Away
It’s not easy walking away
Its not harder to feel alone
I have words with no way to say
There is a world and just my home
I did not look back
I did not want to say goodbye
Courage perhaps or wisdom lack
Without words… can I still lie?
Each step… each thought
Brings me closer and further
I’m free yet caught
Was walking away worse or better?
It feels unreal yet solemn
How nothing can become everything
Can feelings be reasoned?
When only oneself knows what it means…
Something I wanted to say
Instead… I went home
It’s hard walking away
Easier to just be alone
