A poem exploring the option of running away from what hurts you.

I haven’t felt him here in a long time

I trick myself into thinking this is happiness

I know that the fault for this distance is all mine

I constantly settle for less and less

 

The light found in my eyes has faded

The smile I once had is gone

The presence that I had has now been faded

The fact that in my heart I know it’s wrong

 

Take me back to the time when she was here

Take me back to when the world was brighter

Take away the pride that keeps me near

Take away what makes me a fighter

Chasing away the memory of her death

Chasing away what brings us closer

Chase it all away with my final breath

Chase away who begs her to come closer
