Running away from your problems
What makes one think
It will make their problems
Go Away?

One’s problems
Will never truly leave them
But that doesn’t mean you can’t
Run away from them
But no matter how much you run
From the problems at hand
New ones will occur

Though it is still possible to run away
But every time you run
You will always meet more problems
Even if
Your old ones
Are gone

If you stand up to a problem
It does not mean you can overcome it
It means you can try
But it does not mean you can succeed

Sometimes
We don’t know
How we are supposed
To handle a problem
And we try
To solve our problems
In a way that makes sense
Before
We actually try it

When one attempts
To overcome their problems
They must think
Not only of how
This could affect them
But how
It could affect others
Whether it be a victim
Whether it be a culprit
Whether it be another

A problem can be solved
But this does not mean
We know how to solve it
