Run!


Your eyes are darting here and there,
Looking for a quick escape.
The door is open.
Go on,
If you want.

What is it that I seem to be missing?
Conversation was going fine,
Suddenly the need for
Exit strategy?
Hmm…

Don’t hate me because I’m beautiful.
Don’t run because you’re drawn to me.
I am not pushing myself on you.
I am not wanting anything
But life…

Run away then. Run fast and hard.
Live to fear another day.
Die to save your fleeting mind
And repress your very self
Again.
