Running Without Keys

Everytime I try to run you come right back to me,
I don't know why and I don't know how but you do,
I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree,
I am a vessel with no sea,
a heart with no body,
and a mind with no thoughts,
how can I be when I can't even see,
I can't even see where I want to be,
I run some more, I can't focus,
the very thought of you drowns me again,
here I am lost without your arms
and I watch you and you see nothing,
all I want is help, but no one can know
and so here I am, alone trying to escape,
secretly before my feelings become too,
Obvious.
