Or change to conform

Molded by surroundings
Chained to expectations

Haunted by past decisions
Faced with choices

Asked unanswerable questions
Unsure of when to speak

Wanting to leave
No where to go

This is a great poem and obviously you have some where to go. I think you know where and you will be fine.

I used to think too, school was to make me wiser and give me a direction to follow in life... How amiss I was then..:-)
Good write and a pleasure to read.

Unique write. This reminds me of my poem Away From Here about wanting to leave a place plagued with fear and bad memories.
Great write.
