What makes leaving the easiest thing to do?
Leave the life you have.
Leave your family.
Leave your friends.
Leave your community.
And leave someone you love.
It’s tempting, enticing
to leave everything,
everyone behind.
Not look back.
Not turn around.
As if their existence and value
don’t matter at all.
It’s tempting, enticing
to start a new life,
to chase the things you buried within,
to climb the mountains in front of you,
pursue your dreams,
and make them come true.
But leaving has a bittersweet taste.
It’s quite optimistic to begin again,
yet moving forward seems difficult
for someone who cherishes people,
places, and the life they have.
Walking two steps forward
is such a promising future,
but full of misery and hardships
when you’re carrying baggage
you’ve longed to let go, and
tried so hard to throw.
So you end up taking three steps backward—
getting dragged by your duties,
shackled by responsibilities,
and imprisoned by people
you’d gladly sacrifice
your life for.
In reality, moving forward is only easy
when no one depends on you.
To walk away with ease and confidence
is such a far-fetched future
that you always whisper it to the wind—
holding onto a nonexistent hope
that drives you to dream high,
higher than the heavens,
and wider than the blue seas.
