 Screaming like the thunder,Crying like the rain,Out of your box,On the rocks,Running from the hound,Like the little fox,Hunted by the hunters,You’re haunted by your thoughts,And the little light at

http://slow.writerscafe.org/writing/Amir/438891/  I’m lost; could you try to find me?I feel bad; would you look for the good inside me?I ran away from myself, and I haven’t seen me since,They say
