Departure

Here I stand

This road before me leads so far away from all I know

But I must persevere to save myself

Only time will tell if this will be worth it

However there remains no other option

Leave my burdens behind me never to return

I must defy the odds

Carve out a path

Leave behind a legacy

This cannot be done when I'm bound to this place

I'm unsure where this will take me

All I know is that I have to get away from here

This is not my home

Into the unknown

I wander

Not knowing what's next

I keep on pushing

Will this be the end

For me

Will I see the light

Or start to decay

Against the forces that seem so overwhelming

I will not lose direction

I will not lose sight

I will not give in
