home is with you and you are not here

i felt so free in the afternoon sun

now, i just feel locked up

caged

locked in this room

white walls

questions i need to know the answers to

what a fountain of knowledge i have grown to be

cold and purposeless

i want to run in the mountains and desert where i grew up

hold your hand so tight

your bed doesn’t trap me the same way that my own does

cramped desk

i can’t help the strangers i have grown to love

i’m tired

of always having to be here

always having to know the answers

i don’t want this anymore
