I'M Running
running from my thoughts, my fears
running from the truth
feelings overwhelming rational thought
my heart my soul know no bounds, just love
or is it lust?
is it new, different, exciting, not yet real
imaginary happiness
deception
sadness, tears stream down my cheeks uncontrollable
longing obsessively
for answers for contentment for peace
and yet i run and run and run
to or from? which way am i going? which way do i go?
dizziness
out of breath
heart pounding louder
and i'm tired, so tired
of running
