TO ESCAPE


I want to escape
Break the golden chain I thought was priceless
The oppression of doing what I don’t want to do
The feeling of being the slave of my own decisions

I want to escape
Turn off my worries about the future
To forget about deadlines and schedules
Ride only to nowhere without expecting to be scared

I want to escape
Shutting down devices and clicking on only my brain cells
Walking free over the green, the sand or the water
Think about nothing, need almost nothing, owe nothing

I want to escape
My past, my present and my future
The pain associated with the material
Throw away regret, get naked and live freely

I want to escape
But I have lost my will, my energy and my path
I can’t open my eyes wide enough to see

That I can live today, as it is now, and as I had desired.
