A new poem.
I just wrote this one, I call it “Running.”
Wanna run away
And never turn back
Keep going forward
Miss out on attacks
Tired of all people
Sick of these tears
Keep on wishing
That someone cares
It appears that my one wish
Is never going to come true
Even though i’m still wishing
That they cared for me too
Stop treating me wrong
I hate this feeling
All of my joyfulness
They keep on stealing
My soft wet tears
Running down my cheeks
Run away and leave
That one voice speaks
I know that somewhere out there
Someone truely loves me
Won’t try to steal my joy
But will simply agree
Why must everyone
Try and make things complicated
Leave me alone in the dark
To sit there and feel hated
When that day comes
Im gonna keep going
Just like the wind
My true feelings are showing
Running as fast as I can
Not turning around
Both of my feet
Pounding the ground
When it’s all said and done
After I’ve finally fled
Thats when I know
All my tears have been shed

Thanks Mal, but im not feeling so Joyful right now.
Everything that was said in that poem is how I “really feel”
you sound angry… this world isnt the best place sometimes,and life isnt always happy, but it’s great enough, or we all won’t be fighting for it…

Well im more sad then angry. Things aren’t going my way at the moment. I know things aren’t always gonna go my way, but right now EVERYTHING is going wrong for me…and i’ve never actually shared that with anybody. I’ve kinda kept it all bottled up and all of it’s finally gotten to me.

No Mal, This is one of those problems that only “I” can fix…And im not exactly sure how yet, but its going to come to me one day.
Lol, Im not going to do that.
i can get someone else to do it if i can just manage a smile….

then let it out… writting poems are a great way to express yourself. i often do it, it feels liberating…
go take a walk… talk to a close friend about it… or just simply hydrate yourself by drinking cold water, swiming, or simply taking a shower. once your mind is relaxed your view of it all and the solution to all these problems will be clear…
sometimes we have to compromise… but not on everything. i hope you feel better soon =)
Yes it was, I guess I didn’t really need help. Just wanted to share my feelings.
this was one of those poems that instantly turned into a song in my head.
that is a good thing, most poems don’t have as simple a ryme scheeme yet keep important words in there.
most poems are simple in rhyme scheme, but also simple in wording, making it sound like a child’s poems.
or they sacrifice the good simple scheme so they can fit in large words, to make it seem like one of those poems you dont want to really take the time to read.
very good

Thank you.
Did you just invite me here????
Lol naawww it’s okay i was just wondering…
Did I? Idk, I was trying to invite certain ppl. I have over 100 friends, i try to invite the ones i know or think will respond.
Oh joy, I wish I had seen this earlier. :( I feel JUST like this at this very moment. I’m about a week away from just packing everything up and skipping town for good. Maybe we can run away together, huh?
*hugs Joy tightly* Ohh hunni, I’ll always be here for you Joy, I will even open my email for you…if you ever want to reach me, I am always easy to contact through that.

Thanks Grace. Im not sure where you live though, But if we ever meet it seems like fun.
Weird thing is, I could NEVER run away for good. Well I could, but I don’t think I would be dumb enough to actually do it, But you never know.

That is really really good Joy!
Are you calling me dumb, Joy? Lol. I’ve done it numbers of times, and strangely, they’re all ones filled with good memories. It’s the times I’ve stayed it just seems to become a nightmare.
I’m in Australia too.
Sometimes I get to feeling like how you wrote this poem though. I get what I call “itchy feet” for no reason, and any sudden thought or flashback, makes me want to leave (usually in the middle of the night, or when it’s dark) on the next car, train, bus etc out of town. It kind of scares me sometimes, and a few times I’ve almost gone through with it.

Welcome Joy

Thanks Devil.
Haha No im not calling you dumb, But you’ve came back home right. What im saying is, I wouldn’t run away FOR GOOD and like never come back, but i’ve thought about it a few times.
Im in California, i’ve come really close to doing it, but then I think about “All the stuff” I would take with me and then realize it’s pointless…
Like I would take my laptop, cell phone, i-pod, clothes, shoes, chargers, and then on top of all that….I need money. Which I never seen to have right when I wanna run away. By the time I get all that stuff to take with me, It’ll be to heavy to carry and I wont be able to run my fastest…

Ya joy, u might not even get to Nevada lol
I dont wanna run out of state xD. Just like two towns over or something… I think if I EVER ran away from my mom, I would go to a friends house, or my dads. Where I know i’ll be safe.
Nope, never came back home the times I have. I just set up somewhere else. Which is actually what I may be doing next week if it all works out.
Yeah, that’s what stops me sometimes. The fact I’d have to leave some stuff behind that I don’t want to, or can’t. I don’t even have a laptop, just a desktop. I don’t have an Ipod, I only have two pairs of shoes, and my clothes look like I’ve been sleeping under a bridge anyway.
I don’t literally have to “run” though. I live by myself, the only thing that stops me lately, is the fact I now have a cat, and I’m still paying the rent for this dump. Lol. That and the same as you, when I get those itchy feet, it’s when I’m down on money myself.

I remember when I was like twelve, my sister and I had been in a fight. We were both “scared” of what mean things the other person would do. So we both ran away. We met up about two miles away from our house, but we went back because we were scared of being alone. My mom didn’t ever find out because we were only gone for an hour, but that’s the only time I have ever truly thought of going someplace far far away.
If you live by yourself, what are you running away from?
Im only 14…So im pretty much always broke. It’s not like I can get a job or anything. Its just that whenever my mom or dad gives me money, Everything seems to go right…Then a couple of days later when im broke thats when things wanna go wrong and I always think…Man why didnt I just leave when I had the money to.
Awww devil, Me and my sister did that once. Well we didn’t really get far. I was like 12 and she was like 16. We got mad at our mom, so we just walked out the house. Then our mom came after us when we were about 3 blocks over.
Looking back on it, Idk why we didn’t take our bikes. We both had one…

That just shows how much your mother loves you guys…:D
Most of the time, I’m honestly not really sure. I just have this urge that I need to get away. Life, people around me, even from myself. I want to go to a place no one knows me so no one can hurt me. Sounds ridiculous I know.
I’m a runner. If I get too comfortable, things start messing up, so I just want out. I make these spontaneous decisions to just leave everything behind and start again to find a better outcome. I guess it’s something my father gave me.
