Escapes

How many escapes it would take to close the doors on all the escape routes?

Feeling like a prankster, who wishes to befuddle the truth by running away

Many disguises and excuses, masks and sly speeches, are not enough

The self-imposed wall waiting for those hands to puncture them for an escape

Each of them unique portals to a dark land of delusion and defeat

It is impossible to run away from every defeat; after that, the world caves in

Rubbles of disappointments- the world appears dreary and inescapable

From the truth, the past escapades, and the false definitions of life
