Go

I need to go.
I need to leave this town and run away.
Find new horizons, new sunrises, new beginnings, and even new endings.

I need a new reality,
one without care and worries,
without constant preoccupations.

A fresh start, one that doesn’t include you.

Because I can’t escape from this burden by being still here;
this city is too small and I ran out of places to hide a long time ago.

And I’m building expectations around and getting attached to the wrong people.
People who can’t be what I want them to be.

This place is just not right for me anymore, it’s draining me.
It’s keeping me from the happiness I know I deserve,
so I have to get it somewhere else.

I’m leaving precious people, moments, memories behind,
but they’re just not enough,
so this is goodbye.
