Caged and Deranged

Let's go somewhere.

Today.

Let's leave all of our worries and our fears behind us as we stare into the cosmic abyss of wonder that is the sky at night as far away from the city as we can get.

So, so far, so we can finally just-

breathe.

We'll go before the others see

Before they have a chance to stop us,

To ruin our escape

Escape?

Escape. From this life, from these pains, from these people.

C'mon, let's have an adventure.

We don't need to wait,

We don't.

Just pick up your bags, throw on a hat and run away with me because I'm not sure how much longer I can stand here with these people who want our beloved to be anything but free

I'm not sure how much longer I can stand here with these people who hate you and hate me because if I'm stuck here I think I'll go crazy and become what they already think of me and I couldn't live with myself if I did.

Don't hold me back

No- just- no

You can't.

Because see dear there are only two endings to this story.

Either you walk away from this life, from these people, from this place with me or- and I forbid this- you become me.

Don't try to keep me here.

Come with me.

Or set me free.
