Poetry: I've got to run

by Nicole Smith

Created on: July 31, 2009

There is a need, a burning desire

That dwells in the depths of my heart;

The need to run.

Forget planning

Forget time,

I only need my feet to go.

And hours they fly

Screaming against the pain

As they are shredded by the path.

But I need to run.

I can't let the world see my tears,

But I can let the road carry me away

And let me pretend

That my problems won't greet me

When I return.
