(Typed on my Xbox1. Maybe time to invest in a keyboard?)

RUNNING

Been running so long
Running towards the future
Chasing success
Relentlessly pursuing these hopes
As traumatized as my mind is
I never gave up the chase.
My poor old PS4
My trusty XBOX1
Nintendo and all this music
These comics
Movies
And books got me thru the worst of times
Armor the gods gave me to survive
(My art is the sword you know)
So I survived another year
What happens now?
Do I keep running from the past
And the family life I left behind?
Do I keep running
eyes squinting like a numbed maniac
Against the hurricane
In my path
Blazing a road while
The world laughs at me
And calls me a defective fool
For rejecting complacency
Rejecting failure
As I'm sprinting
away from
even the slightest chance
Of a love
Or a tribe to belong to?
