A little bit of Media Meet, a little bit of Coldplay, a little bit of deep talks with a friend and a lot of imagination lead me to this piece :)
The Elysium she seeks
A Family she called home
A Lover who actually cares
A sprightly Camaraderie
A place of Eternal Sunshine and Bliss.
Her fantastical Escape
When she closed her eyes.
The dysfunctional abode
An alcoholic mother
An abusive father
A dreaded place
Where she found no solace.
She made the Escape
When she closed her eyes.
The confidence in his shoulder
As he looked the other way
Ignoring her very existence
Knowing no reciprocation
As she gazed longingly.
She made the Escape
When she closed her eyes.
The amity she lacked
A malicious sneer to the left
An indifferent shrug to the right
A piercing taunt from behind
A sharp smack across her face.
She made the Escape
When she closed her eyes.
She shut out the cruel reality
Forgetting her stifled sobs
And her soaked pillow
As she drew her blade
Across her deeply scarred palm.
She made the Escape
When she closed her eyes.
The Euphoria she encountered
Breezy spirits of Reception
Fluttering Heartbeats
And blooming Companionship
Where else could she go?
She could only make the Escape
When she closed her eyes.
