Run, Run, Run Away

• Artist: Graceful_Butterfly555
• Description: this is one of the first poems i've ever written outside of school. it's one of my favorites because it just gets my life out there in the open. my mom never really cared about me, but i'm over it now. i can find love elsewhere, even if i can't find it in myself

She comes home,
Avoids you.
You just want
Attention
But she tries to
Command you…
Run.

You say no,
She gets mad;
You’re afraid,
But try to hold onto your
Pride…
Run.

Doors slam,
Curses fly,
“I hate you!”
Is yelled so
Bitterly,
From daughter to mother;
Mother to daughter…
RUN.

Take your backpack and
Sprint
Into the night, the wind
Whipping your
Flushed face;
Salty tears
Staining the pavement…
RUN
Away.

Wow... I loved this. Like, A LOT. Nothing needs to be moved, structure of the poem is incredible, very strong and emotional.

dis poem sounds very gud, it wuld be better if some words were moved around a bit, but it stills sounds great the way it is
