I Run From the Pain

I run from the pain of despite
Creation of ideals align
Traffic is not so designed
I feel horror, like a dark light
All flowing through me at night
Those people are part of a sign
I run from the pain
I fear I don’t know if that’s right
If the many become the fine
I follow the light known to refine
I know few will reach the hype
I run from the pain

Russell Sivey

Michelle Mac Donald Date: 7/21/2012 9:40:00 AM I think many of us "run from the pain", Russell. Odd thing is that it always seems to follow at our heels? Reaching towards the Light feels like the best option, somehow it becomes blocked, sometimes it waits.:( Best wishes within "The Traffic Of Life", hoping your pull ahead feeling a winner!
