There I ran

In the Twilight glow, evening smells begin
yet here I sit, forgotten, only chosen when
they needed someone for entertainment
but when I ask for friendship they no longer smile
yes, I'm the weird kid for a while
but I know somewhere over the horizon sky
I will find a place made only for I,
and there, I will finally run, unshackled
at last unbound, every problem tackled
no more chains or weights to hold me down
no, in my place I wear the crown.
with a sad smile and a stout heart
I know perfection was never my part
in this beautiful tragedy we see on stage,
like the bird, waiting to flee my cage.
Yes, I know all too well that I'm not the man
but in my paradise, yes, there I ran.
