    Running Away

    Running away from my problems,
    pushing away all of my loved ones,
    I'm hitting and kicking the walls,
    and screaming to God for a miracle as I bawl,
    I remember hearing her pleads,
    And how I watched her place the gun to her head,
    I screamed for her to stop,
    I tried to get to her and get her to pause,
    but as I watched her pull the trigger,
    the life left her eyes as I staggered forward,
    I caught her before she fell to the ground,
    I couldn't believe her life was no longer bound,
    I never knew how much my cousin had suffered,
    I never listened or took the time,
    I should of listened to her cries,
    now I feel her blood on my hands.

    Ooch! Sorry if true. You do a good job of expressing the emotion.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
