Running

One foot

Two foot

Right Foot

Fast foot

Running

Running

All the time

I'm running

Running to you

Away from another

Running to pain

And away from horror

Running through hearts

And minds and souls

Running across tongues

Of liars and mockers

Running to hands

And away from arms

Running to clouds

Buried in the ground

Running to run

So I don't have to walk

Running to run

I can no longer walk

I just keep

Running

and

Running

and

Running

With nowhere

To go

So

I

Just

Run
