An escape from love happens when we part ways

It is dominated by hatred and human insecurities

Our relationship is not saved and is wasted

For it is trampled by egoism, pride and greed.

An escape from memory is a forced option

To forget dreams, promises and ambitions

To reminisce sweet moments that are prized

Become vain because of assumptions and lies.

An escape from duties impels us to savor freedom

It is sparked by miscommunication and boredom

Evading solutions that may forgive and forget

Are crushed by jealousy, nagging and deceit.

An escape from responsibilities puts us in quandary

Securing kid's future that must be bright and gay

Eluding compromises that lighten hardships

Are lost in the process even for friendship sake.

An escape from sadness leads us to another shoulder

That may solve miseries or burden us more thereafter

Entering a new horizon that only time can tell and heal

The reasons that may soar us to either heaven or hell.

And an escape from realities blinds us to view and ponder

That life casts mysteries to be fathomed forever and ever

In a world decorated with hypnotism,superficiality and amnesia

That drowses us to be inflexible, weak and absence of stamina.
