Poetry

Find

me  if you can.

I’m not doing the same things anymore

so I won’t be in the same places as before.

I don’t want to be boring because I choose to pay it safe

So I’m going somewhere to become who I felt I always was.

Maybe you will see this before I go or maybe you won’t and our goodbyes

will just be this.

I know you want the best for me but you don’t feel what I feel inside and you don’t know all that I hide.

Just to seem okay and normal in front of you and everyone else for I didn’t want to worry you and now I just want to feel free more than just a day or two.

I  want to spread my arms and not end up touching the same two walls again for I want to see and feel new things out there.

I want to finally say I am home and truly mean it for I will find the place that fits me for me and the battle to fit in isn’t a everyday thing.

Find me if you want but know this I won’t be coming back unless I know what  I found was worth it all along.
