WHY-

Why cannot they just let it go.

Why cannot they just leave it alone.

Why do they hurt, and why do they have to lie.

How many days left now; do I have to deal with this negativity that surrounds all that good.

Cannot I just be gone.

Cannot I just go away.

I do not want to go through this another day.

They are relentlessly devoted.

They will not back off and will not let me step forward.

I cannot get back up and they will not let me move on.

I want no more of them, I want to see them no more.

They want to see, but I just want left to be.

Please no more, no more, no more do I want you to control me.

These, they, have you figured out who they are?

It me, I am the they that I try to run from.

My nightmares, memories that I do not want to be relived, or to have lived at all.

But they, are always hanging around holding you in the darkness you try to escape from.

I am still running.

What about you?
