I feel like I'm back in middle school
but in a more serious situation.
I feel like I'm letting a lot of people down
or putting people aside
and I'm sorry if you're one of them.
I want escape.
So bad.
run far away
from the world around you
cut yourself out of the pictures
of the partying teenagers and suburban houses
sneak out during the night
Take the people you love with you.
and run as fast as you can.
Run untill you find a place completely opposite of where you came from-
then it would have to be beautiful.
Maybe in the middle of a forest
or in a airtight bubble under the sea.
And live there freely
cut out from the rest of the world
Being completely uninhibited
nothing wrong or right
no job to work
no school to be stressed over.
Savoring every second of your diminishing life.
Until they come searching for you
the flashlights will pierce through your beautiful bubble
their yelling will distort the purity of the sound.
they'll leave black spots of tar wherever they step
and ruin the ground in your beautiful space.
They'll run to you like you're dying
And announce that they've found you
they've found you and saved you.
And they'll drag you back to where you came from
with the goal to one day make you
a productive citizen.
