Running Blindly
I ran with my eyes closed shut
Ran so far to see if I could find home
and I kept on running
None stop footsteps
Right to left and right left again
And I can no longer pretend
That I’m okay here
I ran down and up hills
Over and over
As sweat rolled down my face
Like the tears in my eyes
And now I cant even find a piece of mind
To help me relax
So I keep running
Running with my eyes closed shut
And
As I finally slow down my heart beats faster
…
I’m here my eyes open wide
To see the dirty light blue walls and old pale brown fence
And I’m Home
I rang the door bell
Once or twice
Then a dozen times after
But no one was there to open the door
