A Place Far Off

Carry me to a place far off,
A place where they don't know me,
A lonely place where whatever happens,
No one cares.
The place of silence and repose,
Where no one finds you,
So no one says,
He was asking for attention,
He needed help.
It's the place where you can just
Shed the sadness,
And cease to be in accordance with your desires,
Without attention.
Where those sad disappointments
Become mere oxygen,
And no one will say,
“What became of him?”
Where the love that never was,
Can slip the bonds of disappointment,
And evaporate with the soul,
And you can become nothing.
