Poetry: At odds with myself

by Carmella Mae

Created on: December 16, 2008

Pen in hand I try to write the feelings deep inside

but all I get is emptiness and a desire to run and hide

from what do I hide, I cannot tell, no matter how I try

for it all is so horrible, I want to run and hide

What to do when feeling crushed by life's eternal slide

I wish to only turn, and then go run and hide.

What makes such pain inside one mind?

I can only say a lot, for bringing everything to the top,

only makes me want to run and hide!

This life I do not love, in fact I hate quite a lot,

but that's okay, God has a place I know I'll love a lot.

One day this life will pass away, and peace I will finally find,

then no longer will I wish, to run and hide!
