Running from myself

Running from myself

A Poem by David Dodsworth

Should I run forever, from my thoughts and memories

 

running through streets of sadness, full of a past I no longer want  to remember

 

I fear madness is holding me, in an grip I cannot  free myself from

 

my mind is entombed in feelings of sorrow and despair

 

I wish someone could help me to start again, give me the chance I deserve

 

To show me my life was not In vain, and make me see what I have left

 

until that day I will keep on running and leaving my thoughts behind me

 

I call for help but nobody hears me,I shout for help but nobody cares

 

I must face my fears and past and search my fate
