Run

Folder: 
Moving On

So many secrets

Bottled up inside

Shamefully concealed from sight

As if for something to hide



Running as fast as I can

Trying to escape my past

But it catches me by the hand

Pinning me down in an angry dash



The thoughts in my mind

Possess my every dream

My eyes flow with tears

Like a rapidly flooding stream



I recall these memories

Silently, my heart drops down

Not sure of what to make

Of this freedom that I've found



I made my escape and ran away

So fast, I was bound to fall

Just when I thought it was safe

I stopped, looked back and hit a wall

When you take hold of your own life, you always fall down. I found that out the hard way (uh...more than once!)
