Run

Had to use the words: Trees, Rings, Truth, Shame, Exhaust, and Home. Please rate and review.

The trees tossing

In the storm.

Leaves surround

As a swarm.

 

Home is gone.

Left behind.

Almost afraid

I've lost my mind.

 

The depressing truth

Brings familiar shame.

In my mind,

Angry thoughts flame.

 

On the streets,

Cold feet sprint.

Guess you never

Got the hint.

 

Think about rings,

and what they prove.

Think about you,

and what you lose.

 

You exhaust me.

Now you're gone.

I've run from you

I was just a pawn.

 

I've given up.

Your games are done.

Yet still, somehow,

I have won.

As You have so ably shown.
Once thought lost It's you who've grown.
So take your dreams let them fly.
Be the wind that passes by.

When next he feels the warmth of spring.
You'll be the one the wind does bring.
For you are worth more than that.
It is he not you thats the door mat.
Be the breeze that

This is a very good write I must say, in fact, terrific in my opinion.
The imagery it gives off is well expressed.
Good job on this poem.

So empowering. I love the last line.
What a great read.

Yes! Yes! Excellent poem Mo. I think you should name it Ending or The End something to that effect. The line 'Now your gone' should be 'Now you're gone'. But wonderful, wonderful write.

NOTE:: If there any ideas as to what I should officially call it, I'm open to them.
