take me away from here

It isn't that I wish to cease to exist, rather that I know this life I'm living won't satisfy me forever, and I feel the day drawing nearer that I need a change.

I need to run away with only the clothes on my back and rings of every color dangling from my fingers

I need to steal my mother's car and drive to some place I will never see again

I nee to climb the tallest tree in the forest without fear of the thoughts that will cross my mind as I balance on the highest branch

I need to hear a new song that breathes life into me again

I need to bite into a new fruit that tastes of the color red

I beg to be freed of my gray and brown existence, even while I know that I'm the one with the power to change it, but one can only stare at the same walls for so long before it becomes impossible to dream of new sights.

Routine will leave me limp on the floor

I've long awaited adventure

I need it to come for me now.
