Leaving the past

Tell me what you think, thanks.

The rain softly drummed on the roof

As I sat and looked out from the inside of my house

I made sure to keep quiet as a mouse

 

Everyone was to sleep

And the rain was all around

I just tried not to make a sound

 

I made my way over to the door

I had my bag and ready to leave

I don't think my parents would ever believe...

 

Its never easy, and its never simple

I told myself I'm done

because they won't accept me as their son

 

I opened the door, ready to go

I'm tired of putting on a stupid show

I've tried it all, but nothing has worked

 

In hopes of leaving the past behind

and the love I could never find

because There is nothing I want to remember

 

There I was in the rain

I saw myself in such shame

I never really had a plan. so I just ran.

 

I ran far, far away

Away from the nightmares that you have caused

because in the end I know I will wake up to a dream

But when we feel alone, it's not running we need or want. It's just what our BRAIN tells us to do, our heart is longing for the embrace of a loved one, a stranger, just a friend. We're confused, not anxious, it's not really the past that is the bug scaring us. It's the future, alone, the drives our nightmares and away from the redemption we actually need.
