I want to be better..

[embracestrength]

This town is diseased
with atrophy
and it's snatching the only feeling left
in me.
The power of appreciation
doesn't exist here.
Only the disgust
of behavioral puss
we season our addictions with.

I'm worn down
 I want out bad.
But more than that,
I want to be better...
than this town,
these people,
and have something to show for it.

In the end
I'm alone
tapping in my room
with a big cloud of anger at my back
..hoping it'll make me run faster.
