ESCAPE

By Oliver Plaice, www.PoetryPoem.com/oliverspoems    Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime

  
I'm trying to escape from the harrowing byways.  Painted blue and red.

Closing my eyes tight while listening to the music within my head

Some people say to me that life is all but sorrow

As I look at life in the ball I know there is a new tomorrow...


I'm calling out in to the night but nothing comes back to me now,

Shouting makes no difference they only stare back at me in hollow harness

Where is life going these days I wonder.  That plague is following me still

To where who can tell...closing my eyes I'm listening to the music within my head  


There is no other place to be than within this light of lights, of mystery lights

So I'll gather up my everything and listen to what the word is being said again

Maybe then my dear you will be with me even though I am away from you...

All I can say is just listen to the music so you can escape, then you can escape...
