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
