Reasons to stop

Every time I start to feel

I hit the road

Always on the run

 

Trying to hide

from the feelings inside

 

Those feelings never helped me

Only made the pain worse

Dont want to feel ever again

 

What would it mean?

For me to stay?

Risk the pain?

 

Running is the only thing

I know how to do.

 

No one has ever been worth it

Worth it, to take the risk.

Let my heart feel

 

So how do I know

when to stop?

 

When to take the risk

Let my heart be open

Feel the love inside

 

My anwser is simple:

When someone gives me a reason to stay.

We need someone to give us a purpose. A excellent poem. I loved the road as a young man. Took a powerful woman to slow me down. A pleasure to read. I like the flow and the story.

Another lovely piece. One day, I hope you find the person who makes you feel that you can stop and face everything including the feelings.

Nice work on this piece. The flow is very well done. There are no passages which stall the flow or hinder the message you're writing of. Once again, very nice work.
