The runner


As the thoughts invade my mind Insomnia takes over my brain Living the life of a runner sometimes bring Shame But even still, a runner I remain Unresolved issues and burned bridges That's all I see in my past then I question Is love real? Does it truly last? It's hard to form the words when you're strapped in the roller coasters of life's mistakes... Living proof of my parents' sin I just feel like I can never win Maybe I shouldn't run just confront my fears and grow And then those thoughts invade my mind And insomnia cause them to continue to rewind....
