Array ( [sid] => 45833 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Run [time] => 2004-05-02 06:18:56 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Sweat trickiling down my back,
Pain tearing through my legs,
Fighting through all the things I lack,
I run.

Away from demons that hant my mind,
Away from memories that bring me down,
Away from the thought of the love of a woman I cannot find,
I run.

On the roads of my life,
Through the trails of my discretion,
I run.

The wind blowing away my dreams,
Cleansed by the washing of the rain,
In the snow as my body steams,
I run.

To survive,
To die,
I run,
For life,
For death,
I run,
I run. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 180 [topic] => 21 [informant] => SeanMcHaney [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
Run

Sweat trickiling down my back,
Pain tearing through my legs,
Fighting through all the things I lack,
I run.

Away from demons that hant my mind,
Away from memories that bring me down,
Away from the thought of the love of a woman I cannot find,
I run.

On the roads of my life,
Through the trails of my discretion,
I run.

The wind blowing away my dreams,
Cleansed by the washing of the rain,
In the snow as my body steams,
I run.

To survive,
To die,
I run,
For life,
For death,
I run,
I run.
