When the mundane routine beckons An uncharacteristic tremor is desired Yet, I turn my back on the door All I get from running is tired Making my own path through the fields Turning to see no one around me A silhouette approaching from the sun Against the wind I flee Transfixed at the sight from way up above, of the benign waves caressing the shore Unable to take the step that I should Unable to bear the thought for a second more Shielding my eyes from the piercing truth Eternally existing in blunt display I close my eyes, and surrender to ignorance All I seem to be doing is running away

Running Away
When the mundane routine beckons An uncharacteristic tremor is desired Yet, I turn my back on the door All I get from running is tired Making my own path through the fields Turning to see no one around me A silhouette approaching from the sun Against the wind I flee Transfixed at the sight from way up above, of the benign waves caressing the shore Unable to take the step that I should Unable to bear the thought for a second more Shielding my eyes from the piercing truth Eternally existing in blunt display I close my eyes, and surrender to ignorance All I seem to be doing is running away
