Love

Feet keep moving back and forth I can not stop
I am getting tired but I just keep racing
I'll keep running till I find what I seek
I want my heart to start pacing

Swiftly I keep running
I don't want to slow down
I will not stop anytime soon
I want to go till what I want is found

I want to awake who I once was
The person who smiled and was carefree
I want to make you happy again
I want to find the old me

But before I can do this I must find you
My feelings for you grew
I will keep pressing on in my mind
Love you are what I want to find

I LOVE THIS !!! It's simple but completely relate able and doesn't take itself too seriously. Keep writing.
