I ran into the darkness.
Tears down my face to escape.
Hurt burning my heart.
too much I couldn't take.
Broken I fall to my knees,
my head to the wet ground.
hands digging into the grass,
crying without a sound.
Dying inside,
where no one sees or knows,
the memories haunt
so many scars that never show.
Angry words fly in my head,
voices raise till i am deft,
Shattered apart,
and no one to take whats left.
The rain rumbles on my back,
my picture of my demise.
Stuck in this shadow I never asked for.
And kept by him who I despise.
His hands hurt,
his words cut too deep
and still I love him,
I am too weak.
I rise and move, running again.
I have to get away,
because this will kill me,
I have to be somewhere I can stay.
I need to be safe,
there I can be whole.
your hands cannot hurt me again,
and I will never know where to go.
Lies told to hide the bruise,
laying in a strangers arms to feel loved,
giving away half of me,
All of this you've done.
I run into the night,
feet kicking, blood running.
A split lip, a new cut,
If I stop it will only keep coming.
I will become the ocean.
I will become the wind,
cause the fire in my soul.
Will be the my end.
I run and run ,
and at the end of it all,
I will stand at last whole,
before I die, before I fall.
