Escape Poem by Keosta Reid

Escape



An escape
For people like me who live in bondage
bound to something that We are... I am.....afraid to let go
Knowing We... I..... dont need it.... but yet is so comfortable
Its what We are.... I am... Sure of
If We..... I...let go will it come back? ?
We.. I... dont know.
What can have the strength of chains?
Sex, love, hate, money is it not so simple and plain.
Or more so complicated, thus We..... I...try not to acknolwedge it.
Pretend, Imagine that the sun never sets
so tears cried at nght are never shed
Should We... I... desire to be freed?
Live Life with out such impurity?
There so clear is the chance
& Right here right now is a decision to make
Be forever captive or escape.
