Where the Waves Break

I want to run away To run far, far away To run and run and run and run and run To where life can’t touch me To where love can’t hurt me To where image won’t shape me To where my demons can’t reach me I want to find that paradise That fairy tale in my mind of mystical lands Where the sky is the limit and only you can decide what to do I want to run away Run far, far away To run and run and run and run and run To where the only pressure you face is from the weather To where you can truly love yourself I want to run For the end only to come where the waves break and the children run free I want to run free Free from the chaos and pain Free from the judgment and isolation Free from me Free from that part of me that whispers, “You’re not good enough.” Free from society I want to find that fairy tale land And when I do Finally I shall stand
