Running

Running
I’ve been running away,
Away from my fears,
My past,
My mistakes.
Running 
Toward the end, 
My final hours,
Speeding through life.
Running 
A new direction,
An ending point,
A safer place.
Running 
Now I see, 
Why I’m running!
To get where I need to be
Running
To start my life
Running 
To get to you!
