Michelle Jones Poet Rhyme

Runaway Soul

Running 
Hiding 
Searching 
But never finding
My runaway soul left out in the cold 
Only it's bleeding heart leaves traces 
Bloody red tears proving that it actually exists at all
Deep buried emotions locked in the minds halls 
Each and every day I build and build that proverbial wall
And my mistrust keeps a handy watch out for curious feelings trying to find their way in 
I run but these demons catch up
I hide but unwanted admirations find me 
I search and search 
Yet love remains untouched

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
