Runaway Hope

Runaway Hope

A Poem by Rachel Landes

I am running out of words. Running
Out of time
And places 
To run to
I am wishing 
I had never begun this race, I have
No time or space to build momentum
To run forward, instead 
Of running 
Away
God, how I wish
God was there
And the visuals were not
And how I want 
Someone, anyone
To understand, to talk to 
Or to sit within our silence
Together, rather than face this
Alone
