I want to scream, <br />to leave, <br />but I can't. <br />I'm a coward. <br />I could never find my way back home. <br /> <br />I used to love you so much. <br />The hope kept me here. <br />There's not a word in the world to describe my fear. <br /> <br />I don't want you to find me, <br />but I'll never run. <br />I miss my life, <br />the warm, devouring sun... <br /> <br />I miss the haze, <br />that lied across your face. <br />I was weak, you put me in my place. <br /> <br />I've had enough.... <br />I need another dose. <br /> <br />I need to breathe smoke, <br />I need your scent, <br />I need to be reminded of the warm, <br />mid-western air. <br />I'll find my own way there.<br /><br />Brittney Karasek<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/precious-territory/
