Going away

by Rob Stevens, Scorpio - Not entered

	I must go now
	for this life is hell
	for I have a meaning 
	that I cannot tell

	I am going to the beyond
	where it is free
	I’ll be one again
	I’ll be me

	This world is dark
	for that is why I embark
	to the light skies beyond the rolling clouds
	that shrouds my soul and imprisons my heart

	Let me go
	Let me go
	I do not belong here
	I fear this place
	my soul is disgraced

	I will break this life of chains
	and will walk again in the absence
	of my pains
	
	I must go 
	it is my time
	to free the soul
	and become whole

Reason for writing:

    
This poem is based on a suicide that happened in my neighborhood.  I was really disturbed by it, and I felt I needed to write a poem about it.  It was performed by soemone I really didn't know, but I knew her family.
