Escape Velocity

At last, I've reached the speed necessary to escape your field,
For months now, I've been stranded and concealed,
The struggle to break your gravity has been a test of faith,
But well worth it considering I can finally leave this place,
While I rocket away toward unknown reaches,
I remember strolling along your pristine beaches,
Things seemed to be perfect while I called it home,
And I still wonder where it was I shouldn't have roamed,
The fuel I burned along the way seems quite trivial at this stage,
My agony doesn't seem so intense now that I have turned the page,
With my nose pointed at the stars, I know things will be okay,
Looking back to reminisce is not an option for me today,
Nor will it be until you're just a flickering light of memory.

I will eventually forgive her for not giving me a chance. For now, I'm stuck making up more metaphors on things I hope to achieve through time. Time, being the best healer of all, doesn't seem to be moving fast enough for me.
