A poem extracted from my current book of poems.
Escape,
Sounds selfish is it not?
Or did they tell you not to?
Instead, they say stay where you are.

Escape,
Let me give you reasons,
For the past, present and future,
Are you ready?

Escape,
For the past,
You followed rules without knowing why,
Look at what happened now!

Escape,
For the present,
You wish you were younger again,
Because you wish to live a different life.

Escape,
For the future,
Here we go again
Clearly, you already know why.
