Midnight Thoughts

I can't stay

I have to run

To a place far away

So I don't succumb

To the demons in my head

Or the midnight thoughts

That consume me as I lay in bed

When I was younger I was taught

"Love yourself, don't hide who you are"

"Stand up and be a star"

But they cringe when they see my scars

They cringe when they see my soul

Broken, tired, and old

Black as coal

So here I go

Running so

My thoughts let me go
