run away

by Michele Schottelkorb

i want to run away
(words from a song)
this pain too great
felt for too long

writing it out
problems not solved
this sickness abounds
i thought we'd evolved

look in my eyes
see glass tears fall
are you listening
to me at all

you hear every word
this you say
so why am i falling
apart each new day?

ridicule my opinions
though trivial they are
they're mine, not yours
i thought we'd come so far

what can i do
to show you my soul
it's like rotting fruit
in a forgotten bowl

i love you and need you
you laugh in my face
maybe i should fade
away with no trace

please show me the way
our promise in love
please, dark raven
remember your dove

all I can say is that whomever this raven is, that this dove of an archer is pining for and is aiming at in the air is the luckiest of ravens.
