Running

Run, Run, Run, Faster Than The Wind Chase Me, Find Me, Catch Me, Fix Me From Within one upon a time, I knew who I was my favorite color, my favorite word I could say things unblinkingly without conforming to the herd but now, my means for survival through each stressful day is to not divulge information in any single way people who think they know me merely have only met my shell I look happy, gay, and free when inside, I'm not actually well I wish for closeness I wish for them to know the inner side of myself the part I can't seem to show at the same time, I'm running what this closeness is, I couldn't say if not heart, then it's always distance that stops me from feeling this way no one runs after me no one cares to try none have ever been able to catch me as I run by Run, Run, Run, Faster than The Wind Chase Me, Find Me, Catch Me, Fix Me From Within
