I’m waiting for that morning
To bring the loch back to my eyes
And you darling you
Turn into a runaway cloud
And let your shower

On the Moon
Turn to ash, then ride the tide ---
You runaway to find a place to hide ---
Then sadly you realize all too soon ---
The only place left is on the Moon....

Premium Member Runaway Poem
No poem should become a runaway;
write no more than what you mean to say –
determine to keep it short and definitive;
no reader wants to chase a fugitive.

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!

Runaway Pain
Why do you hurt 
Ones you don't know?

Nothing was done
For you to act this way.

You should've left
Right away.

Instead you stayed 
And caused so much pain....

Tears will stop.
World of happiness will created.

The Medicine Man
The medicine man sold it with a grin,
the townsfolk dying again and again,
tried to runaway,
townsfolk without delay,
gave him a taste of his own medicine.

Smile
Smile even if it hurts

The pain will last awhile

You'll soon get to runaway

To be who you want to be

Not what others want to see

Because you are perfect the way you are...
