A Thing about Life

--Author's Note--
This second response to The Truman Show took the form of a poem, as you probably can tell.  I really don't think I like it that much because it's kind of short and choppy but what it's saying is something I like.  Please help!!! 

There is something about,
this life
that I just can't stand,
I have to...
Go.

He asks me to stay,
But I can't,
It was all a lie
There is no use.

My life needs to truly
Start somewhere else
For "Life is fragile",
Life is worth the fight. 

Into the new world
Where she awaits 
and I stand,
as a real person,
independent,
new.

It is here I will stay,
until the end
where my life is mine,
for no longer
will I allow myself to be...
Controlled.
