Runaways
Reluctant to be a child Unsupervised in the wild Never dreamed of trafficking All the screams inside happening Wide eyed and busy tail All points bulletin for sale Youth is lost sold to a John Simple teen years now gone...

Running away, they found they soon got tired, Then the raccoon was suddenly inspired: A taxi quick and cheap was hired - But...

Runaways
Like a fabric that is strong, but damp all the way through, my body, soul, and mind, exist the same as you. My thoughts are like runaways, that do not like their home, they mingle with my reasoning, and become what I know....

Runaways
It was raining on the night they decided to run; no one knew why the left. They left without a trace, confusion clouding their faces, and all they took with them was hope for survival... ...

Betrayed innocence Feet step from the city bus Their eyes fixed in awe Where will the new roads take them? May they soon be led back home...
