Run And Hide Poem by Nick Downer

Run And Hide



I need to escape from myself
From the troubles deep inside
I need to run and hide
Like when I was little
And my dad chased me around
Pretending to be a bear
Now the chase comes from within
And there is no space
Big enough for me to hide in
I used to cry out
In fear of the bear, the monsters
Now I cry out
Afraid of myself
I am the monster
And there is no escape
From my head or my heart
