Run Away
My truth is not yours so I end up feeling delusional.
All I hope is to run away and you call me a coward.
And I ask you, how am I the coward?
When I am only revealing the truth.
Oh lord I just want to run, and run, and run, and run.
Even further. A little more. And just one more step.
To peace or abyss, I do not know.
Only one thing is crystal clear.
I hate the voices that chase after me.
I hate the caution in their eyes.
I hate the warning in their words.
All I want is silence.
Silence and Peace.
Peace and Darkness.
Darkness and Death.
Death and Life.
Oh how wonderful it would be,
To be a nameless painting?
And I wish as I have done before,
To be meaningful to nobody but me.
