I ran away from home
Category: Poems

I ran away from home. I thought of you. I wish I hadn't.

It's been weeks and I keep sending you the words 'I miss you'. I hope when you say it back you're not lying.

because I see the way you look at her hair, or his dress, or their face. and I wonder if it makes you feel the same as I do when you smile. 

I'm so tired and so confused. I can't find the words to say I love you, and I can't find the words to tell you to leave me behind either. 

I'm lost, and I'm scared, and the bad guys are chasing, and darkness is creeping it's way over me, and the camera's panning out and theres just forest and more forest and more forest and im stuck, so helplessly stuck. nothing is safe. I have no home to go to. there's only green envy. will my number come up eventally?

but for some reason I keep living. I want it to stop. but the heart is a disastrous thing. 

so I'll rip it out of its cage,
for once and for all,
and as it beats it's last rhythm,
would you look over my shoulder,
and see someone more your type?
or would you curl your fingers around it,
and wish there was more time?
