Running Away Poem by Blaze Yang

Head spinning faster, I run
I don't know what I just did, but I know it can't be undone
Staying there would of lead to my destruction
I was a ticking time bomb like a volcano awaiting an eruption
My fear desperately tells me to go back
But I know all she'll do is attack
Attack me for how I act and who I am
Thinking of that, I charge forward like an angry ram
Years of resentment and being depressed
Lost and hopless, always stressed
Not being able to take it anymore, I ran
It's not like anyone would notice, I was as loved as a used can
Smiling to myself, they can't hold me down anymore
Because I am away and the new world I will explore
Anxiety hits one more time
When I realize what I did was a crime
Has she found out already? My heart begins to race
Unconsciously I pick up my pace
