Poetry

I can

Run from you but I can’t run from myself.

I put this off for far too long

It’s time to deal with it now, or it will continue to grow until I’m stuck in it too.

With No escape plan needed this time as I walk to my last destination.

I hope to put everything back in order again.

Therefore, Sitting on the sidelines to my own story isn’t an option I can afford anymore.

Especially if I want my story to have a good ending

And impact someone other than myself when it’s all said and done.
