DON'T RUN AWAY
There was a time were
I used to look down
Everywhere I went
I changed with time
Strangers voices don't seem
to affect me much
Now I find in faces secrets hold
I have a place to stay
I don't care what others say
It took me so long
To find what I feel it's home
Strangers faces don’t seem
So unique from where I'm from
Your hands show an interest blocked
People told me I couldn't push this any further
I found a place where I could write
And somehow it made everything right
Don't run away
Don't ever run away
Cuz you will end
Freely lost hopeless
And alone
I've been there all my life
Pain after pain
I may never live through what you are going through
I would do anything to take you out of that
I just want you to know I'm there for you
See now I'm here
In this old library where
People read and I stare at them
my mind fly's remembering the past
Sometimes I do read too
I found eventually peace in me
I repeat again what I once learnt
I don't care I took the time I took
Knowing why makes me
wanna swallow more books
Do what you want
But don't run away
Cuz you will end
Freely lost hopeless
And alone
