Escape

I didn’t know how to get to the other side

Now I don’t know where to go from here

Undeserving of an ordinary life

Roads going into the wood leading nowhere

Is there an escape from this?

Or am I doomed to forever wander these roads

Of memories

Of the could haves and should haves

The path paved with stones of melancholy

How do I escape from this?

Running hard with the invisible hands pulling me back

Into the grey clouds

Of loneliness, regret and nightmares

Close my eyes tightly

Only to wake up to the echoes

Of my own head
