I fled from the weight of it all,
Losing myself, in shadows I'd fall.
A world I belonged to, now far from sight,
A distant observer in the still of night.
I longed for my former self, so free,
A yearning spirit, lost in reverie.
Yet, the more I ran, the deeper the throng,
Yearning to return, on this path so long.
