Run

Run

A Poem by ruth
"

i wanted to be a runner since middle and in high school, but my mom always said no. There was never time and she didnt want anything bad to happen, i guess she still doesnt trust me. i was pretty fast but now i am just a lazybutt

"
All I have ever wanted was to run, 
to feel the heat from the sun.
To run with such passion,
no matter the fashion,
but I soon realized that was impossible,
I wanted to be unstoppable.

I knew i could be the best,

faster than the rest.

Mom, you took away my dream,

once you said I couldnt join in,

I cried so much and wanted to leave,

your words i couldn't believe.

Now you ask me why I'm not the same,

sitting around just being so lame.

I see how strong they have become,

and they always ask me to join them and run.

I feel trapped in a bubble of security,

and you ask why I feel this insecurity.

I want to run far from here,

and your words never to hear,

Time is rapidly passing by,

and soon i will say good-bye.

I like this, i like the way you have expressed your feelings as if you are running from them. You can't run yourself, you always end up with yourself. Like the emotion behind this.
