I glance out my window,
Below me lies the sea.
It calls to me,
Come, be free.

Yearn to go,
To leave the life I know,
And flee this place,
To dive into the unknown.

But I can't now,
Not at this time.

Though no one would cry,
I can not depart,
Because there are so many I know,
Who will me not to fall into the depths below.

But I fear what may happen,
If they ever decide to go.
