Running

i ran forever
until my feet were tripping under me
it felt like my feet were on fire
my lungs burned
but my face was freezing
i ran until my burning feet fell off
until my lungs fell out of place
and my face was in dissaray
i ran with madness
it was unrecognizable
i'll keep running
until my face twists back
and my lungs jump up
ill keep running
until i find my feet again
