    Running Away in my Thirty Minutes

    Do they know what I’m thinking?
    No, they could never guess, not something like me leaving
    Do they think they can control my life?
    Like what ever I do has no meaning, but they don’t know…

    How dare they say that I can’t be me?
    What else could I be… not likely much more
    Why do they think that they’re in control?
    What gives them that right….. I control more

    How dare they prevent me from seeing my best friend?
    Like they haven’t tortured me enough with their lies
    Obviously they don’t get it… will they ever learn?
    Like I actually care.. Really. Try me

    Could I just walk out of this place, and never look back?
    No- Alexis could walk through the fire
    Could I stay hidden for a week, and then come back?
    No- Alexis could, she’s been doing this for years

    I’m not Alexis, though, this time- I want to be
    If I’m in a place like this, how will they ever see?
    I’m not Alexis, though this time I want to try
    They crossed the last line, now they get to deal with it

    I won’t miss this, so I’m taking my chance
    I will get out of here, if it’s the last thing I do
    If its about power, my will against them, lets dance
    There’s no way in hell, but hell, maybe I’ll stay?

    yo poem is very within. I see or can tell that there's more to be said but overall, it's you and only can be you.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
