the courage to up and walk away leave this life behind a legacy forgotten a world no longer mine the strength to inhale and progress the same strength that is making me whole making me less changing the being of yesterday making it more capable of walking away and erasing the past a desert land of vast nothingness into a future of so much more so much less equipped with dreams and goals depicted by a lack of rest intertwined with a deficit of intimacy with so many countless people all of who can not touch me and yet yearn for an embrace from the arms of this unknown being and i gaze into the mirror looking for you while fading from who i was and who i am running from this place to somewhere i've never been searching for peace and something else i can not name maybe a cure for heartache or the works of a mother and her creations of pain every time i think i've found the answer another question enters my mind again and then i awake feeling as if i've never slept eyes red and swollen although i remember not when i wept the physical aspects of my body jerk out of numbness and into reality a small piece of paradise God intended only for me and i see how my life has been and what it could possibly become i choose a new path that forks into one
