Its well written, but has alot of room for improvement. A story can be told here. Who is "she"? What is she running from? What is your relationship with her (ex: Family, Lovers, etc.)? I thought some words were forced in there for the sake of rhyming only, and "come out and play" seems very childish while I think this poem is going for a more mature feel. Try experimenting a little bit, get out of your comfort zone. Ignore the rules you think you know about poetry for a bit, just write without worrying about rhyming or fluency, all of that can be added later. Best of luck to you! I look forward to reading more of your work. =)
