It's been a shitty week. And so, a poem: Run With Me.

[SnowedIn]

Yes. True. Shitty week. With one bright spot. And a lot of inspiration. So, a new poem titled, "Run With Me". Enjoy.

Have you ever just wanted to run?
Just get away from it all?
No…not you! Come with me.
I’m not trying to run away from you…
…just everything else.

The churn.
The dishes.
The ping.
All of it.

Run with me?
I really don’t care where.
Grab the dogs.
Get some coffee.
Put the top down.
(I know, I know, your hair. But humor me please.)

I’m tired.
Bone tired.
I want to sleep.
And not touch a mouse for a year.

Watch a sunrise with me, please?
And a sunset?
Be silent with me on a beach.
Make me sing a song in the car.

Run with me?
I really don’t care where.
The woods.
The city.
A hill.
Anywhere.

Leave it all.
Work.
Church.
Uncertainty for unknown.

The door’s open.
The seat heater’s on.
The coffee’s hot and blonde and sweet.
Please, may I just get away?
Have you ever just wanted to run?

To feel the wind in your hair,
To let your feet carry you away,
And leave all your worries behind.

Let's run together,
And leave the world behind.
We'll find peace in motion,
And freedom in the open air.

Let's chase the sunrise,
And watch it light up the sky.
Let's chase the sunset,
And watch it paint the world with gold.

We'll run until our hearts are full,
Until our legs can carry us no more.
And then we'll sit and rest awhile,
And watch the world go by.

So come with me,
And let's run away.
Let's leave it all behind,
And find our peace today.

[SnowedIn]

I'm blessed with so many poems today! Lol!

This is as usual, AMAZING! I love the way you're alluring the readers to run away in an imaginary world where nothing but peace rules. Love this! You really know how to play with words and create a masterpiece.

[SnowedIn]

Thank you. I'm close to out of words, so I'm going to leave it at thank you. It means a lot.

[SnowedIn]

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

[VIVANT]

Ohh beautiful— it really sweeps you up!!

I’m so glad people respond to your poems! Often I’ll see a great poem it gets no traction. Well deserved Mr snow ❄️ 😌 🙏🏼

[SnowedIn]

Thank you SOOOOO much for reading and commenting. Truly appreciate the kind words.

[VIVANT]

Look at you you’re an influencer since I talked to you last !! Fitting 😌

[SnowedIn]

Ha! :) I still have NO idea how that happened.

[19magic]

Got me with the mouse lol, it sounds really nice and makes me want to do it. To just sit in silence for awhile and not think of anything

[SnowedIn]

Thanks for reading and for the kind words! Yeah... I thought that writing it down would make me want to do it less. Makes me want to do it more!

[19magic]

It reminds me of what I used to do, I moved to uni at a seaside city, it was stones rather than sand but was still nice. But at least once a week I'd go on a walk and sit on the edge of a cliff/rise, and just close my eyes and listen to the waves it was really therapeutic.

[SnowedIn]

YES! When I was MUCH younger I did the same. I had no money but every morning I had coffee by the waves rolling in from the ocean and thought I was the richest man in the world.

[TrueConfection]

Beautiful! This really speaks to me. ❤

[SnowedIn]

Thank you! I think I understand.

[Daniela1982]

You missed it already.

[SnowedIn]

Thank you, sir! Appreciate your kind words. Do you have poetry I can read?

I lack a muse at the moment, but I'll try to find something worthy.
