So I Ran
You deserve the world
But I'm a struggling visionary
So I ran.
...
I never felt like I belonged in this world
Always striving, always reaching
Always trying to prove my worth to those whom I behold
But then I met you
You...
A force so powerful to undo my very soul
Your very presence was the antidote I never knew I needed
In it I was safe... unstriving... and still
I never felt like I had to prove my worth to you
But that...
That made me feel fazed
So I ran.
But your smile is forever engrained in my mind
And that I cannot outrun.
My love, one day I'll be brave enough to come back home—
Home to you, if you will embrace me in your arms.
One day, I'll be brave enough to stay.
One day, I'll stop running
And I will stay.
