I want to run away,

but you are pressing on my heart.

I don’t know what to say.

I believed this to be play,

but every time I start

I want to run away.

You come by every day

and throw at me a dart.

I don’t know what to say.

What if my soul is gray

or my thoughts unsmart?

I want to run away.

You hunt me like your prey.

You make me fall apart.

I don’t know what to say!

Use me while you may,

make something resembling art.

I want to run away!

I don’t know what to say!
