Like Thelma and Louise?

A Poem

Etienne J. Sarfelli
I want to be like Thelma and Louise
and drive until I die
to go off a cliff
when there's nothing left to do with my life
I want to run away from sadness and pain
I want to be free of this feeling
that nothing is ever going to be the same
I cannot believe that I have been reduced to this
to tears and longing and missing
I want to escape the feelings I have right now
pretend that there is nothing wrong
make it all go away
forget that I ever knew what it was like to have my heart broken
I want to be like Thelma and Louise
and drive until I can't drive anymore
with the wind in my hair
determined to leave this world on my own terms
and without looking back.
