I Run
I run and I run
but what am I running from?
I can't remember anymore
my past is a blur
My breathing is ragged
my chest is burning
and I feel the sob escape my throat
as hot tears stream down my cold face
I sink to the frosty ground
the early morning fog disguising my form
and I let the pain rip through me
the fear, the regret, the loss
Overpowered by guilt and regret
the feelings consume me
Where has my life gone?
Where is it going?
To feel again is overwhelming
but this ache in my chest wont be sated
I pick myself up and put on my facade
and I run and I run
