To Escape

To Escape 

I want to escape, 
I want to escape so much that I forget who I am anymore.
I want to run through fields full of sunflowers
I want to belong in a dream, forever. 

I want to ignore the reality, the stress, the anxiety everything causes 
School, society, rules, family, people.
I want to escape.
I want to feel free, happy, meant to be in this world to explore, to live
Why else would humans be here
Why else would we brought and left here? 

I want to escape
I want not to think, or care about anything we created 
Lawns, money, college, classes
I want to escape from the education we’re taught by humans
I want to be educated by the Mother Earth herself 

I want to let it go
And constantly remember to myself that it all doesn’t matter and makes sense 
At all. 
I want to see what it’s like to feel myself, out there 
Out where no human harm exists 
Out where no one exists

I want to escape from the feeling that everyone needs to be in the cycle 
I want to drop out everything, and prevent myself 
From this nonsense that’s been going on for way too long. 

I also want to escape from feeling normal, 
But feel like how I’ve been dreaming to feel as I write these words.
