Turn and Run Like You've Never Run Before

Just hope there’ll be another day
One with a chance to run away
Just hold on as long as you can
Even if you’re slipping, reach out your hand
Just pray today’s the day it ends
And can be true to yourself, break down your defence
Just try to escape the dark that is looming
Don’t bother with pretence, it’s only others you’re fooling
Losing grip brings you crashing to the floor
Echoing sweet lies whispered by your sweet l’amour
So when you think you’ve never needed them more
Just turn and run like you’ve never run before

| aww wow, how nice to be mentioned on the same page as such a great poem. i'm pleased my comment inspired this! the rhythm suggests subtle determination and the last four lines sum up everything i wanted to say and is devastatingly truthful. an excellent write, keep them coming, Kate x |

| well thanks whoever gave this poem two stars!! i know you're allowed to have your own opinion etc etc, but whatever you think about this poem, it's probably one of the most truthful poems i've ever written even if it is extremely simple, and is just reflecting my struggle to move on and attempt to improve my life. i hoped that by showing i could manage it, others could too. instead of just leaving the two stars, i'd rather you left a comment so i could understand what was wrong with the poem in your eyes. xxx |

Yours is a a cowards poem , a running away poem. yet the spirit to fight, to contest, hides somewhere in the words. Why not ..........
Lord just give me one more day
to stand and drive this thing away
One more day to stand my ground
One more day to turn things round
To face the looming dark and win
To have a brand new life begin
Losing grip, crashing to the floor?
Pick yourself up and climb once more
don't heed the lies of your paramour
Just get real , get what's in store |

| your version was very good. but thats not at all how i was feeling when i wrote the poem - i don't like to think of it as cowardly but maybe it was running away because sometimes the only energy or hope you have seems to be for running away, when you can't fight anymore - in the situation i was in, the only thing to do, the best thing for me to do, was run. xxx |
