Freedom

chasing it. breaking through chains.

She couldnt take it anymore.
So one day she just started running.
took off.
running.
Too afraid to look back,
afraid of what she might see.
She cant stop.
It all flows out.
All at once.
All the rage that is kept so quiet
so deep down inside.
Driving her now.
And she's running faster.
fists clenched
heart pounding
ripping the air.
Faster.
She cant stop.
She wont
she cant get far enough away.
And she hates herself for it.
For everything.
And she pushes harder
at least trying to leave the tears behind.
And the pain.

just as fast.
