Run
Run.
Run until you can
hide no more.
Headlong towards
a life of importance.
And the person worthy of
a place in this World.
Run until the pain
becomes inexplicable.
Unbearable.
Until you feel your
very soul bleeding dry.
And then stop.
Stop dead.
Beyond the delusion
of slowing down.
Which is still running.
Stop.
So that you stand
face to face with the
uncertainty of darkness.
For it’s in this darkness
that you’ll remember
that you are the light.
And from there you
will run freely.
With no need to hide.
