Run

I keep running

running away from my problems, running toward my goals,

running to anywhere, everywhere as long as it’s not here.

I should take a moment to look at where I am at, but there’s no time.

I have to keep running.

I’m chasing and being chased.

The past is on my heels as I try to keep up with the future, the present.

But now always changes and quickly becomes the past just as I realized it is the future – it was the future.

Run.

I run towards my dreams, aspirations, perfection

and I run away from my fears, mistakes, embarrassments,

myself.

No stopping, just going, always running.
