The Escape

Noted Nest

By Alia Gupta



It's all a haze; she sits down with grace,

The world quiets down,

Muffled voices, blurry all around

The rhythm of her heart

Loud and clear, scaring away the numb pain that's near 

Her eyes are red, her eyelids wet, her hair's a message; as she starts to disassociate

She can hear them laughing,

But she's lost.

Moments ago, inhaled and brushed off

Her head's hurting, and hands are shaking,

But it's not pain.

It's pure elation.

It's pleasure.

She's never been happier.

As she's all alone, all alone

In a world filled, filled and full

She's not a fighter, nor so noble; she never was

That was it, her home. There she was smiling as she'd finally find one.
