{ This was written in 2002-younger days, but it was written in the same place I'm in now, so I thought it'd be an appropriate time to bring it back, perhaps...?
Let me know what you think, if it's 'poem-worthy'}
She wants to run far away from this town
where no one will know her for miles around
so she can escape the pain
her mistakes have caused her.
She's falling now, into a deeper hole
and doesn't even know for sure
if she should really go...
why bother?
She's packing her bags and leaving tonight
it's going to be a lonely flight
but this time
I think she's leaving for real
She's giving her mother a kiss goodbye;
they're both trying not to cry
she ensures her mother she'll be fine
it's no big deal
She's got to run away from her problems now
She'll figure things out somehow
Now that she is off the plane;
she thinks she wants to leave again
and she misses all her friends
but can no longer see them
She can't go back now, it's too late
the pain is still with her, she can't escape
