Getting Out(Coming Back)

Getting Out(Coming Back)

A Poem by Musicbombshell19
"

i really had needed to get out what i was feeling

"
I need to get out of here
get away from everything
things that go on
i need to leave
away from this city
away from this town
and go,go somewhere
somewhere i can be free
to do what i want
be whoever i want to be
with the rules
ones that cant break me
or tear me away
from what i love
or what i can do with my life
just leave it to play out
leave it to play with others
and get along without anyone
no one telling me what to do
just telling everyone to get out
wanting them to stay out
out of my business
and waiting for all the doubters
to be there
encouraging me to go out there
and give it my all
and to be there with all of them
the ones who made and molded me
i might come back one day
just to see if things changed
maybe back to my schools
but one in particular
go back to my high school
the one that gave good
bad and great memories
ones i would remember
as long as i could
i would walk the halls
and say "what was wrong with you"
walking up to the same locker
three years in a row
with the same people
ones i've known for years
i set my forehead on it
and tears begin to run down
the face of a 19 year old teen
who now punches her locker
and says "did i get out?
and become free from this town?"
the tears start flowing heavier
like a mid-summers rain
i ask myself again
"but why did i come back? "
im supposed to be speaking
for the assembly of the year
with others that i tour with
to teach them lessons
that were taught to us
like never giving up on a job
but one thing that i learned
i walk in getting a question from a senior
"how did you get to where you are now"
i didnt have to think about it
so i pulled her up on stage
and told her something i will never forget
"dont ever give up,take your time
and don't live to fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
Be a something you love and understand"
me and someone i was touring with
we decided to do a duet
they wanted us to do the 3 most
inspiring songs to me and we were shocked
i was fine when i did sarah beth(skin)
and hallelujah but after that was when
i sang simple man hoping for a message
one to reach them....i broke down
in the middle of the song but kept going
i was done, it was quiet for a moment
but suddenly the applause came in full blast
then he sang Thats Life but after he got soft on us
Kiss From A Rose.one of his specialties.
hoping it wasnt for me
towards the middle he stopped
and told them "i want this to be special for you and me"
apparently i had missed something
and everyone had knew except me
"i love you miss" with his semi-southern accent
and said "marry me" the audience gasps
i didnt refuse but simply accepted
he finished the song
as he slid the ring on my finger
and said to myself "maybe this is why?
maybe he wanted me to come back,
just for this, or to make me reminisce
this wouldn't have happened
if he hadn't agreed to bring me back"
i walk away and that senior i talked to
she comes up hugging me tears dropping
from her eyes telling me "thank you,thank you"
then the tears roll down my cheeks
as i wipe hers away and i say
"for what?" she explains it to me
"what you said to me...it gave me..hope
for a better tomorrow and to always believe
and never give up" i told her
"you don't need peoples advice to have that
you just need you to believe in and
i know you can do it"
now i had known why i came back
i helped the one person
who doesn't know the real me
but maybe knew what i've gone threw
and knowing what shes going through
makes me know why i came back...
i didnt want to...wasn't made to....
but just had to...and make a difference
