Run

This was written on March 7th of 2013 and edited on March 9th, of 2013.

As I run away

I run away from the pain

All the memories 

Everything

All the men I once cared about. 

Gone

I run away from their haunting memory.

I tore my heart out 

And run away from it

It calls

"Come. Come back."

I run away from my beating heart

I'm ready to live life without one

As I run away

Everything that was once beautiful turns cold and blue.

I run past a beautiful flower

It's cold and blue

Everything dies

None of them loved me

None of the men wanted me

The only beautiful thing is the moon

As it guides me I can't help but look back.

I took so many chances only to have a bleeding heart.

With every man 

I was healed 

I was stitched up

With every man 

New wounds were created

Old wounds were released

I was bleeding

Maybe even healing

I'm dying

With each step 

Til I am on the ground

Gasping for some kind of air

They were my whole world

I gave up my heart

Gave up feelings 

Gave up the possibitly of falling in love

I feel everything around me die

Just like me

I feel nothing but the cold air

My open exposed heart

Beats one final time

And shatters

Author's Note

A poem reflecting on me and how I feel right now.
I'm definitely sick of heartbreak.
But these men always give me something to write about,

well, heartbreak is excellent fodder for poetry. the trouble is, it is never good for anyone. there will come a day when you will discover that one true and decent man who will appreciate you and make your every waking moment a joyful song of release and satisfaction. never give up the hope. good things will happen if you let them. great write!
