Run?

Feet planted firmly...

I finally feel at home.

I will not run.

Fear pounds through my veins.

Ah, I am alive and healing.

I will not run.

These unexpected feelings bloom in a once broken heart.

I am grateful that I am no longer broken!

I will not run.

Scare me, push me, tempt me, love me....please don't hurt me.

I am happy with ME.

And I do not want to run.

Healing My Heart

They say time heals
the broken heart
I guess that is a good place for one to start
but…not tonight
Time stands still

Creeping, slipping by, dragging me down

Tonight

I hurt tonight

Oh, I ache…yeah, that’s right

I have given up the fight

Tonight

I

Hurt

Tears sting my eyes and bring little comfort to my beating heart

Fears invade my serenity pushing the teardrops to the ground

Why have I failed and been let down



Deep sadness fills

my

dreams

Lost ---
----abandoned -----

----hopeless-----

Emptiness beyond words

My Dreams

Where have they gone?
