Can we ?

I try to ignore what is happening around me, I try to forget the pain we go through every day. I try to see past the discrimination and look toward a brighter future. I try to see what can be done instead of what has been done.

Is it foolish of me to think our surroundings will change ? Can they change or will the past repeat its self again ? Can you try and forgive and move on ? Or is it a sin to try and escape that which has captured you ?

Maybe it is foolish to think I can run away from what is happening, maybe it is foolish of me to think that I can't run away. Should I jump in with closed eyes and a happy smile, or should I take it one step at a time and see where I end up ?

With a heart full of hope I wish to escape this place, I wish for a better me and a better future, but is this just wishful thinking or can we escape this bloody place ?
