Running From Life

I... Running from the car,
Lost... in winter chill wind.
Running from the car,
Running from life,
Losing time frame,
I am lost... among the wind.

I... Running from the car,
Lost... in winter chill wind
Running from the car,
Running from life,
Losing control,
I shut self... in a safety box.

Running from life,
Don't want to see
Outside the safety box.

I... Running from the car,
Lost... in winter chill wind
Running from the car,
Running from life,
Losing control,
I give up purpose of breath.

Eliza~
I think that at one time or another, we've all tried to 'run from life' ... the neatest thing is that it always catches up with us~

And ... that's a good thing, yes ?

To true, Trillam, we can never out run life.  Nicely written!

I awake to a world I don't want. There is no transition for me. I am in heaven. I am in hell.
