I run away a little each day in my mind and in my heart.
Run away from the past,
Its imperfections loom like mountains before me.
Run away from the present,
Its daily burdens hold me prisoner and are often too heavy to bear.
Run away from the future,
For its obstacles are vast and its distance blinding.
I run away from time,
Its endless passing rarely seems to be on my side.
Run away from my body’s weaknesses,
For it holds me back from being who I truly am.
Run away from friendships,
Because the need for honesty continually mocks me.
Run away from love,
For fear it will forever consume me.
Run away from life and all its pain,
My run away mind, my run away heart.
