We Run Away From Home

We did not understand
Why Rebbecca
Ran away from home
We left her all alone
Still holding on to her
Raggedy Anne doll

You can't run away from the ashes
  —as their memory burns from within

Walk Around Trouble

your not running aways
its it not fun to play
there's no need
to plea
put mind at ease
go to a love brother

The painful night fell

Tears dripped on the pillow-


Scared dreams run away!

Premium Member sweaty hands

1950s kindergarten
cute, dark-haired girl
in jumper dress
bright red tights
walking towards me
smiling...

I run away
with sweaty hands

My day a waste
My mood is bad
I am mean and nasty
I’m a horrible cad

Don’t look at me
Better run away
I can’t remember
A much worse day.

If You Run Away From Youth

if you run away
from youth
unsafe you are
at 60 it will be there
waiting for you
to spoon-feed her
till stomach swells
at times with imagery

Premium Member Can'T Run Away

Been working a lot
On finding a job
And claiming my spot
I can’t run away
From being sober today
But at times I wish
Some memories 
Were missed

Premium Member Fear

Fear
is a killer who uses a knife
wanting to carve deep into you
but when you point a gun at him
he will run away
and try to kill you another day

Work

I’m not afraid of work
I don’t run away from it
I take great challenges head on…
If no work – I go to sleep;
If there's job – I slumber through it.

Insight

People that are rich can afford to run away from their problems.
People that are poor, can't afford to have the problems they run away from.

Last night, I dreamt I tried to run away
Til a mechanic —singing— made me stay
Though we never spoke 
And then I awoke…
I wonder, what would I say?

Mother Fly

I, a sexy fly on my teenager’s wall
Eager to hear what she'd say when he'd call
For times were bad
And I was scared
That she'd try to run away to Nepal

Run away 
From the past 
Run into the

Run towards 
The future

Erase the past 
Rewrite the present

Keeping 

hope's flame burning   

in 

our hearts 

is 

what would make fear

Distant places where they live like royalty
Distant places they love to call home
Distant places where they live with cruelty
Distant places they run away from

Runaway

Stop!
Oh weeping heart!
Shed no tears for him,
Deserter of love,
Run-away fool...
You deserved better!
Shush now!
There will be another sunrise!

Quinn's Spooky Poem

Rises are red
Violets are blue
Sticks are Blunt
While your head isn't

I beat you until I see crimson
And your heart is blue
Now you better run away
Before I kill you
