headaches

suffocated by these walls,

robbing me of the joy i feel in all.

i can't explain away,

the heartache i constantly feel to this day. 

ready to leave, please don't ask me to stay.

i'm so tired of feeling this way.

try to trap me by time, 

the clock is constantly ticking.

no amount of control can curb this new itching. 

a dedication to life,

i can't wait to soar. 

stretch my wings and simply explore. 

i constantly feel a sense of wanting more.

therefore, the attempts to pull the strings,

are as silly as they seem. 

for in my power holds the key:

i can always leave-

the older i become, the more i want to be just me.

my head, my head
oh how it aches.
i long for silence, and crave my space.
