A Poem by Matthew
"

Trying to run from a suggestion can be the hardest thing to do.

"
I thought I ran away
Turned out I just ran in circles
You knew from the start that I wasn’t going anywhere
So you led me on with suggestions
You never warned me, but I never listen
For what it’s worth I won’t be here long
Just long enough to get the courage to run again


See me through
Loved and long
I’m so far away from home
No matter, I’ll just turn around
Facing the sun again
Running down the same path


You knew me from the start
I can’t be saved from the likes of you
You always thought you were right
Passive aggressive, with a hint of arrogance
I never meant to harm you
I just suggest you leave me here
I feel at home


Long enough to be
Hated and being
I’m so close to home
It doesn’t matter, I’ll be torn away
With the sun blinding my eyes
I’ll walk down that same old path


Timid and crazy
I can almost touch my home
But that just doesn’t cut it
You’ll tear me away with a whisper
Your heavenly smile blinding my judgment
I’ll just follow you down your corpse filled path


Here I lay, on a bed and naked
Your voice it sooths me if only for a moment
Tainted thoughts, and distorted feelings guide me through
Your suggestions never fail to mesmerize the simple minded
I’ll stand here by your side as long as I’m wanted
I can still remember that place
How much I long for home
