Escape

Just a random thought... Well, maybe not so random...

I want to escape
From what you ask?
From fakers
From people who take all they can get
And never give anything back
From the hatred those eyes bear me
Those cold dead eyes
In the faces of the people who are supposed to care for me
I want to escape
From who you ask?
From the lyers
From the ones who cheat us all
From the ones who seek my poison
To hurt
I want to escape
Why you ask?
Because I'm tired of hurting people
Tired of haunting the ones I loved and let go
I'm tired of leaving them hanging by a thread
As their chances of new life and love shrink
And I grow
I'm tired of being thought the weak one
And having to prove my strength
I'm tired of whatever powers I have over people
Tired of being able to control them
Yet having no control of myself...
I want to escape
To start over
To become something new
Can I escape this?

To answer your question humbly; there is no escape from 'you'! You may be the problem as well as your divine solution. One cannot hide from themselves. What I mean by that is, There's no escaping fakers, people who use us, deceive us, betray us and disappoint us. We can't foresee their malice intention and fake character, until the damage is done. And you don't have to start over and become someone new. Be who you are, just handle and deal with life anew. Control your life and the things within it, don't let life control you. Peace and Love!

Great Read!xoxo
