Escape

Flying by,
All the beautiful things in life.
Speeding past,
The important things to do.
Fleeing fromthe screaming and yelling.
Leaving behind,
The painful memories.
Pushing back,
The uncried tears in my eyes.
I'm sprinting so fast,
Running away,
Running for my freedom,
Running for my life.

I like this a lot.  I think this is one of the best poems I've read today.

Some word of advice, don't run from everything.  If you run from hurt/pain, how are you gonna know the real meaning of fulfillment?  If you run from your past, how can you learn from it?  If you run from all the bumps in life, how are you gonna grow stronger?

I see no changes, wake up in the morning I ask myself, "Is life worth living or should I blast myself" TUPAC SHAKUR

Your poem is great, but I'll give you some advice too.
Acire is totally right, if you run from your past, from problems, from darkness, you will never rest, they will catch you. You will feel free for a while, I tried to do this too, but time learnt me that you can't run away. You've got to face them, and fight. Just send me a message if you need me. Bye.

It's been raining since you left me.

the poem is good. it seems like something that might be said by the character Jenny in Forest Gump. She was one to always run away from her problems, and bad situations.

Sometimes we all need to run....even if it's just for a little bit.  Very emotional and well written piece of work!

Really great poem...I wish I could run away from all my problems...not possible though...a lot of times when you sit and think of the bad stuff you miss the important stuffand even good stuff that happens. You should sit back and enjoy life (although I know sometimes it's hard to..) it's all good though...just my little input because I don't wanna say what everybody else says....I liked it...

I really like your poem. I'm not going to preach at you though, because everyone else did too much of that already. Congrats on you publishment, or whatever the word is.

I really luved this poem.
It sounds like you have had alot of hard times in your life- prob alot more than me.

But from someone who is just starting to learn about poetry- be happy you have a way to express yourself. It is a gift i wish evryone could have...

I dont think that I ever read a poem by someone else that said so much about my life as theirs...Thanks for sharing this piece...

And about your friend just be there for them...It matters alot more...
