Just expressing myself
Take me away far away to places untouched, unexplored and untainted. Please, at great speed so the stars are just streaks of light and so that my problems and worries can shrink as quickly as the rock we call home shrinks into the distance. And may that prison take my sorrows and regrets and even my sins with it as it dissappears into the dark, so I can be clean and new and discard these heavy red stained robes forever. Take me somewhere I can breathe without restriction, air that still has its strength.
Quickly, quickly take me away for I'm withered and tired like a tree that's grown too old. My branches are bulky and heavy and crack and moan from the slightest breeze. My roots have grown shallow and lost their strength. My leaves are dry and lifeless and eager tinder for the slightest spark. Take me to waters of life.
Take me away, far away in all haste I beg you. I've burned bridges and homes and dear one's hopes and the guilt is too much to bear. Those I've lost haunt me because I abandoned them in my isolation. Those I've yet to gain terrify me for I can't believe they deserve one such as me that has sinned and burned and disappointed and abandoned.
Take me away, far away whoever has the power. To where this galaxy and its memories are only a faint afterthought. Empty my heavy heart as we go I beg you, for it is heavy indeed. Take me so far that my reputation is new, my heart is light and hope blooms anew.
But when I get there I hope not to ask: What makes me, me? Without the sins and burned bridges, the abandonment and disappointment, the sorrows and heavy heart, would I even be me? What will hold balance in me if my scale only has my deep love, humor, loyalty, intellect (debatable), strong conviction, empathy, selflessness, creativity, stunning good looks and extreme humility on it?
I should go home now. For the sake of being me. Take me home, oh you agent of happiness.
