Still a long ride ahead

[FieldersNL]

It's been more than a week since my escape from prison,
and I still don't know how to feel about it.

It goes without saying that they took things away from me,
that I thought to be a blessing and a gift.

I'm more of a loner now than ever.

During my captive, people fought.
Some folks died, other folks lived.
I still haven't mourned those who died.

This is life, the way I see it.

It's a strange feeling to have things taken away,
that made me.

There's still ways to mend myself,
but it can't go without consequences.
But there's time to think things through.

It's been a hard time lately,
and I've still got a long ride ahead.
