Run

Samantha Long

By Samantha LongPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

Every time that I find someone.

Something inside tells me to run.

And I feel the same fear everyday.

The thought of them running away.

It's something to do with my past.

Got me thinking love doesn't last.

Many I loved left me in the lurch.

Caused me to question my self worth.

So I feel most safe when on my own.

As I'm absent fear of being alone.

But I want the fears to go away.

I want to cherish him every day.

Have a relationship of good health.

And most importantly, love myself.

About the Creator

Samantha Long

I have a passion for the arts in all forms, however, writing is by far my favourite, because I think that the meaning comes from the narrative or message conveyed by any piece of artwork in any shape or form
