| Escape I |
 |
| a gentle breeze touches my skin, and the leaves gently fall to the ground, a single tear glides down my face, and my sorrow escapes from my lips, pain on the inside, pain on the outside, expessed by my scars, pain in the air, felt through my breaths, pain in my heart, expressed by my tears, only I understand, how the pain comes and goes, only I understand, what the scars truly show, only I understand, why I resort to these means, only I understand, who I long to be, only I understand, where I can be safe, only I understand, the wonderful escape, escape from the sorrow, escape from the pain, escape from this life, to never come back again.... ~10/15/04 |
| I know that there are others out there who understand this poem and understand the feelings behind it. I just hope that all are doing well and that everyone is safe. I wrote this poem in an attempt to get the feelings out, but it didn't quite turn out the way that I had hoped, hence the next poem, Escape II. |
