Drink so hard, throw it down, let the darkness cloud
what are you running from? what scares you so?
A hole where the heart once sat proud
cut away, all those years, the tears, so long ago
the love once held inside, now just a memory in the distance
The look in your eyes, says you want to be anywhere but here
you always smile before you dig the knife in
what are you running from? what is it you fear?
days lost to a drug fuelled rage, you can still find the love within
find a place in this world, turn a new page
You want to disappear from view, longing to be clean
but need another hit, feel so drained, dirty abused, unfit
What are you running from? where have you been?
you run to escape, blank out days, to find a place away from it
find your place in this world, feel the love hidden deep
Forever running, to escape our darkest demons call they follow us throughout, don't run, turn and shout we can be strong, we can be tall, the demons will fall take a step towards a life that holds you to its heart, stand out find your place, feel the love that holds us all true
Thanks for reading,
Kyle.
I am so glad you conquered or are conquering your demons. A great write. Peace
Well, some of this ive lived, some ive known through people ive met in my years. I like to be able to give some possitivity to the situation that a lot of people live in, we can overcome so much with some help, a bit of belief and a lot of love
I love your ability to be so candid.
