Escape

Getaway, through the gateways that pave your way
escape to avoid the pain and misery as it dances on your grave
a break from the boredom that grates, the sheer heart ache
of a love left in tatters as the world quakes
shakes you to your core, as day fails to break

Escape, to find your head, lost in the clouds
your mind drowned in the sounds of the crowds
to find home, hope, a love that would climb the highest mountains
to be by your side as the world collapses in lava fountains

Escape, a sunbeam magic carpet ride
across the oceans of the mind
avoid the pull of the tide
search the world, you never know what you'll find

Take the time to find you, be true, be who you want to
escape the days that grind, that degrade your mind, avoid the hate that they spew
the past is not the new, its just a story of what was once you
find a new page, begin to write with a flourish, let your pen flow through

Write the song, the one that people will sing long after we are gone
find the melody deep inside, the world you hide, let the tune play on
find the words that stick to your heart like toffee, let them coat you
envelop you, devote yourself to exploring what develops if you change the field of view

Escape the old, forget the why, the how, the what, the when, the where
look at the who, the person that sits inside the one that cares
the one with a story to share, a life to lead and love to wear
forget the past, find your future, explore the universe out there

Thanks for reading.

Peace & Love.
