Running away from the world,
the people in it.
Running away from troubles,
the lessons in it.

Running away from ignorance,
the importance in it.
Running away from shadows,
the hopes in it.

Running away from others,
myself in it.
Running away from myself,
the secrets in it.

Running away from lows,
the highs in it.
Running away from darkness,
the choices in it.

Running away from death,
the life in it.
Running away from sorrows,
the smiles in it.

Running away from nature,
the art in it.
Running away from hate,
the love in it.

Running away from lies,
the truths in it.
Running away from myself,
myself in it.
