RUNNING AND NEVER ESCAPING

I am running.
Running from who?
I have no clue
Will it ever end?

Each breath feels like hundred knives
Piercing through my heart
Each step makes me a little more exhausted
I could hear people cheering for me
Encouraging me to go on
As I turned back to sneak a glance
I could make out the silhouette of a person
The one I am running from .
In the far end there is a source of light
The end of this stupid chase
As I got closer to it
It was abundant love
Love for who? Me
Love from whom? Me
One step is all it takes
For me to love myself

But I couldn’t have that
The opportunity was snatched away from me again
For I was caught by my chaser
My own demons
My insecurities!
I was dragged back into the darkness of self hatred
A pit that I can’t seem to escape
No matter How fast I run!
