Someday

I will run away

leaving small things behind

until they become smaller

than dust

underneath moonlight.

Some night

I will walk this Earth

meandering

until I find paths

my toes will tiptoe

until they bleed from

the satisfaction

of finding my home.

For now,

I smirk at plans

no one else sees

and no one else dares.
