Running From Self
Running rapidly
From self, hard and fast
No escape.
Seeking replacement soul,
licking self wounds
pitying bad choices
Blocking out tensions
Ignoring essence,
No relief in sight.
Constantly moving,
Running from Self reflection
Soul struggles to breathe.
Showing fake joyful self
To world, carefree man,
No worries, mate.
Revealing self
Only in sleep state
No compassion for day vessel
Unaware in daylight
Communicates loudly
Blocking out essence
Revealing self softly
Soul begs for healing
Full into unhappy
