Run

Just run a mile
No steady pace
Cut through the wind
run so fast so that a jet can't even recognize your pace
and everything else just leave
leave it somewhere,
Remaining in a place
where you don't have to meet it again
run so fast until sweat explores
Run so fast that tears you cry
fool even you
and are mistaking for
The same perspiration downpours
Run so hard you feel it all in your core
In your center, your heart
Run so hard that your heart beats can't keep up
One foot rapidly being placed in front of the other
One emotion rapidly replacing another
Running seems to force all these emotions together
Running gives them freedom
That's why I can't help but shed tears when my feet decided to meet this ground
Uncontrolled but feelings still have a hold
Running in 100 degree weather but what I'm feeling is still cold
Running with a little fear
Trying to hold on and get use to it
Talking to myself
Thoughts louder
muscles heavier
Feeling isolated or pushed away
But running because there's faith
In you feeling the same way
Running to feel like me again
Running to know me better
Running to see you brighter
freeing myself to run to something clear again
Overwhelmed by constant emotion
This summers been hard but I'm focused on this running
this mile is almost over
coming to an end
Tears drying up bc I can't let one see how hard I'm tryna win
Him
running alone
Running for what I know
Running for what was shown
What I still own
just ran a mile
Out of breath
Scared to death
because one opened up the most
Vulnerable part inside this chest
Distress
This is all a mess
Truth suppose to be in this quest
Hard to rest
Is this a test
Collapse
hoping to end this run
with the vision of your face
to let me no
I did run my best.
