i can't keep pretending that i'm fine
because i'm not.
i try to scream as the tears stream down
my face but nothing comes out
of my open mouth.
i think about a world where i disappear
and i like it much more than here.
i constantly feel lost and nothing i do
can distract me for long enough.
missing you has been far too rough.
i want to run so far away so you won't
have to risk seeing me everyday.
if i run far far away will it make the pain stop
and the memories turn to dust?
i want to hide in a place where
i wont be found, change my name
and ditch this town.
if i hide will i finally feel content
and at peace on my own?
i can go anywhere
but i'll never be able to return home.
