Abscond

The urge to disappear
Sliding down my throat like medicine 
Always running from my fears 
Because looking at them is painful 
There are times when I hate myself 
And want to vanish 
I'm a perfectionist, but human nature
Isn't perfect 
I look at this fallen world
And want no part in it 
As cars are burning 
Staring into the flames 
Wishing I could hide inside of their orange 
The darkness of the night is a blanket
When the sun is up,
I'm naked again with this pain 
Am I an accident?
When I screw up I can't help but wonder
There are days I want to run to the forest
Just to exist with the evergreen 
Never to be seen
To become a secret
At least in my dreams
I can escape from the burden of reality.
