I Want To Run

I Want To Run

A Poem by simplisticwoman

I want to run
I want to hide
Where would I go
Who would I become

One minute I am okay
The next I am not
I want to run 
I want to hide

People come into your life
And then they are gone
What purpose do they serve
What purpose do I serve

I feel lost and deserted
I feel empty and desolate
I want to run
I want hide

But if I run
I''ll never find rest
But if I hide
Then I won't see beauty

Stop running away
Stop hiding who you are
Go towards your dreams
Let others see your beauty inside

You feel like you
 have lost everyone
But oh no my dear 
Everyone has lost you

Come back to your life
Come back to your dream
Rediscover who you are
Give them back what was once theirs

You are and you have
Inside you what you need
Just move through
Step into it

Stop running
Stop hiding
Return to you
Return to me

I have been running and hiding most of my adult life. I've let the pain and frustration and the hurt and fear consume me, but no more. I will no longer succumb to my weaknesses, I will be strong and I will surpass all expectations of what and who I am. My little girl deserves nothing less from me...!

Poetry is always open to interpretation for me what I see in this piece is the inner struggles one faces in life nevertheless I think you’ve done a great job in bringing this together. Keep on writing.
