Is it a sin to flee?
Flee to a different world
A world where I am free
Free to be whoever I wanted to be.

A dancer, a singer, a teacher, a poet
A poet who craft magnificiently written poems
Poems that can rebuilt the ruins
Ruins of the self destructive poet.

Maybe I am just different
Different from everyone
Everyone seems to be contented
Contented to what this world can offer.

But me, I wanted to fly
Fly and see what goes beyond
Beyond the clouds, beyond the sky
Sky that hides a world where poets peacefully die

Sky tempts me so much that I almost jump
Jump and begin to fly
Fly to the sky but then I was awoken by clunks
Clunks of chains that keeps my feet on ground.
