Running in Circles

Running in Circles

A Poem by Clara Kevie
"

Don't know where I'm going, but I suppose it must be forward.

"
I'm running in circles
Don't know where I'm going
Around and around and
There is no end in sight
And I hate it so much!
But I know I can't stop

Sometimes I wonder what's the point of it all
Shouldn't I just fall and stay down already?
When I look down it can be so tempting
I look up and I'm running, running away
I'm running in circles
I can't see a way out

I'm running in circles
Don't know where I'm going
Around and around and
There is no end in sight
And I hate it so much!
But I know I can't stop

Circles have no beginning or end
No start or stop, no corners or shortcuts
I've always been running
I can't ever stop
Even if I had the yearning
Which sometimes I think I do
But I can't
Because circles have no end

I'm running in circles
Don't know where I'm going
Around and around and
There is no end in sight
And I hate it so much!
But I know I can't stop

If I stop I might drown
go below all the stresses
I'd be trampled so quickly
suspended, and in pain
so really is it worth the fuss

I'm running in circles
Don't know where I'm going
Around and around and
There is no end in sight
And I hate it so much!
But I know I can't stop
