Run Away With Me

Let's go now,

leave this town behind.

Forget the furniture,

The unpaid bills ,

Those who love to hurt,

Those who it hurts to love.

Your job sucks,

Mine does too.

Why wait anymore?

Here, I'm a woman defeated.

Here, you're a disheartened man.

Let's go where no one knows.

We can start fresh,

Reincarnated.

We'll pretend that we're

Whole people.

Complete.

We can live off the grid

In the forest

Or chase tornados

Across the Midwest.

We can be beach bums

Or snow bunnies.

We'll find freedom

After letting go of this life,

Crossing that bridge to Peace.
