Always In Pursuit
As my heart runs away, my mind chases after, and in hand, always in pursuit, my pen follows close behind.
I...
I can't‐
Can't slow down
Can't slow the beat of my heart
I would if I could
My pen follows close behind-
My breath can't keep up
Neither can the world around me
No one can see through the smoke put up by heart
Chasing after my mind
My pen follows close behind
Faster around the clock than father time himself
But my hand, not so much
Taking its sweet time translating the chaotic rant of my thoughts
But not so nice and neat are the scribbles produced by the rush of words
My pen follows close behind-
Bold and italicized text
Give context to the motion blur of matters my heart is running from
Filling a page before the ink can dry
And faster than the tears can race down my cheek
My heart runs away
My mind chases after
And always in pursuit
My pen follows close behind-
