Soft Escape

Sometimes I want to curl up in bed,
Wrap myself in a blanket and lay down my head,

To close my eyes and let darkness consume me.

I want to just stop thinking of reality you see

It’s gnawing at me rapidly,

The troubles, the worries, all the responsibility.

I want to get away from it,

I want to go and hide,

I want to stop myself from breaking down and cry.

I know hiding isn’t the way to stop it from coming

But it’s my way to escape ’cause I feel no belonging.

It catches up to me and creates more hurdles,

I’m just so tired of all these obstacles.

I’m gonna get rid of it for a couple of hours,

When my eyes grow heavy and my head lowers.

I’ll push it all away for a couple of hours every day,

And dream of a life where everything is like a fairy tale.
