Sometimes I wish
I could fly away
Away from my pain
Away from my heart
I always feel things so deeply
The emotions are so strong
I can't just let them go
I wish I could fly away
To a distant land
Filled with fragrant flowers
And bright cloudless skies
Days without rain
Days without pain
So I can forget my heart
And the times it's been broken
So I can forget you
And the things you have said
I long for peace filled days
Without hurt and tears
The best thing I can do
Is lock my heart up tight
Not allow another boy
Within it's tattered view
Keeping them at a distance
Until I have healed
And am ready to let them
Fight their war in my heart
Once more
We all wish that at certain times we could be whisked away, to forget,to reflect and to escape. Life can be precarious. this is a well written poem from your heart. I enjoyed reading it.
