Turning Away (from the light)

Afraid of moving
Moving forward
Moving back

Back to the routine
Of daily life
Hiding away

Away from reality
In that place
Once called home

Home, a distant dream
A feint memory
A luxury long gone

Gone, my ignorance
My childhood
My want to be free

Free from my troubles
From my past
From my weakness

Weakness, giving in
Giving up
Moving forward

Forward, feeling the warmth
Seeing the light
Turning away
