escape
to be free
to have no chains
to have no lines
pulling you towards the ground
not ready
for a premature burial
I am young
to run
as far as my lungs can take me
without bursting
arms to hold me
when I reach where I'm going
is the dream
lonliness only comes from need
I need nothing
but want everything
am I running fast enough
to catch up
with who I should be
am I running fast enough
away
from this constant
biting at my heels
telling me to stay
with eyes so convincing
deadly

Who should you be...well, it sounds like your well on your path...since you are good with you...and that is the best place to be.  I've read confidence and steadfast virtue in this...virtue to self, without being self imposed...

wonderful write.
