PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I was playing mega man

With one of my brothers

"Alex!" they screamed

I said "not again" my bro laughed

I looked out the window, and saw the cars

Those cars that I hate so much

I was filled with rage, so I got my bro and we went

To fight a fight, that can never be won

Five men stared at us

I saw my other bro in one of their hands along with a friend

"Let them go" I shouted

and as they did, they came after me

I ran upstairs as they ran away

Locked in one's house is a scary thought

They banged on my door as I thought of a way out

Put a table in front of the door, got my shit

Jumped out the second floor window as i've done

so many times before

Running, into a distance not knowing who will be there

two blocks maybe three, I ran

My brothers at a distance

I ran towards them as one of them looked to their left

I saw in his face and then a wave, so I looked back

and their they were, coming for me

I ran faster and jumped to the gate to the right of me

Again seperated from my siblings I ran

Open spaces, scare me in these times

so I ran, thinking of were to go

Seeing a open door, I run in

Running through a house unseen

I ran to other side and jumped out the first window I saw

I ran and ran.... not knowing what induced it

just hoping deep inside, my bro's are ok

Finally I see it, my aunt's house

A house I've always ran too, but this time different

I saw the cars surrounding it, and I stoped

without thinking I jumped in the tunnel

Running in the tunnel of the city

not knowing where it will lead

not even caring... all my options are gone

It's over...nowhere to go

I got it! my friend..no..

Maybe my girl..no..

yep it's over

that night, sleeping in the tunnel

Crying, because it's over

The morning came and I got out

Walking home... in pain...

deciding no matter what will happen

I won't go out like a punk

the running is over, it's time to be a man

I went home, to see parents

Seen my bro's

All was back to normal
