Most nights I lie awake,
Pondering where else in the world I could be.
Wishing I was a snowy dove,
Able to fly where the sun never sets.
In my dreams, I can climb the highest mountains
And dive into the deepest seas.
My brain has never understood
How to be content in the same place.
I am restless.
I was born for bigger things than this town.
As much as I love my small corner of this huge world.
I have an urge to leave.
My feet never stop itching,
To take flight and leave the bleakness behind.
One day I will take off,
And perhaps never return.

HI SKYEBELLE ~ Thanks for being my MPS FRIEND and thanks for your second POEM ~ Again well written with a challenging theme. While we are still Young (under 20 ?) we are still studying (as you are) going to UNI is a chance to escape but currently (because of increasing cost) many UK students choose to study at their Local Uni and live at Home~ a great opportunity for 18 year olds to spread their wings is lost. When you are qualified and Job Seeking ~ theoretically you can go anywhere in the World but alas what is POSSIBLE is not always PRACTICAL ! Love your Poem because it echoes the aspirations of many of the TEENS & TWENTIES in the College where I work. Every BLESSING in your desire to FLY AWAY ................. Yours BRIAN (UK) Please check my Poems ~ Thanks B.
Thank you, Brian! It is my one wish to leave my home as bad as it sounds, I just want to see everything!
