** On the Run

No where to run not a place to hide. Feeling like the criminal must stay on the run. Don't smile, or say hi to me because I won't speak I will just pass you by. Trust not a soul I must run. Afraid, of every face I see are they here to take me? Their out there waiting, watching must keep running as fast as I can. Exhausted from never being able to sleep they will find me than I am dead for the things I said. Must never stop running forever. Afraid to say anymore than I have. Can't ever get close to anyone for getting to close they will find me. So I will always have to RUN!

I'm glad this is light poetry, Rhonda, because it sure is no life to have to be on the run. Your poem is very well written, animated, energetic. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes, Caroline.
