Run Away Poem by James Casey

Run Away

Today was a time to run away, run away from pain
My life is such a mess, doing this is such a drain
I have prayed so long, I can't remember when
No matter how far I go, it calls me back again
Guess pain will always be there, until the day I die
Some of this pain I can bear, a way to get by
I think of some things that will always be,
Like life and the pain that accompanies me
One day I will find the cure, a way to forever end it
When that day comes, I'll be ready to spend it
Until that day I'll live and keep from going insane
Today I ran away, ran away from the pain
