Running

was entered in a competition here. Thank you for reading.

I can relate to this one deeply. Beautifully woven in perfect meter and form.
shine on!

Thank you Miki. There is always defense in not feeling...and if one feels too much and can't cope, running is always an option. :)

This is how I feel about love. It may be about something entirely different, but love fits the lines perfectly to me. Nothing can be so wonderful yet so terrible as love. Sometimes running away from it feels like the wisest choice of all, but how does it ever get so close that you need to turn and run. It sneaks up on you when you least expect it, it comforts in hard times, it whispers sweet dreams to quiet the nightmares... but it is a monster of vengeance when the one you feel it for betrays your heart!

Thank you for reading Poetryman. Yes, my point exactly and I know exactly how you feel. Running is best when you know you will hurt more by staying.  
Sigh*.

To run from or towards something, the gravity of it all will lift your feet from the surface....
nicely written...

Something or someone is a motivation of course. Running from would be self preservation.  Thank you kindly for reading Mourganna.:)

So true..sometimes running is your only option..

Jemac...you are so right.
