Why Do You Run? Poem by Amity Willows

Why are you walking,
Walking away,
Away from your destiny.

Why are you running,
Running away,
Away from your love,
Away from what,
your heart tells you.

Why have you shut your mind,
Why have you closed your heart,
Why have you trapped your soul,
And drifted apart,
From all of your friends,
And the one.

You’ve pushed away,
Everybody,
You’ve shunned the one.

You’ve ran away,
And hid away,
From the one.

The one who loves you,
The one who cares about you,
The one who would hold you,
The one who would comfort you.

Why do you push every one away?
