Why I Run

Why I Run

Lungs on fire

heart racing

blood pumping

muscles burning

Stamping frustrations

into pavement

Converting anger

into fuel

Until there is 

nothing left

to hold onto

A note about my poetry: Whether you are facing a similar battle or walking alongside someone suffering from mental illness, I want you to know that I am praying for you. I pray my poetry may speak to you or perhaps help you gain a little insight into the battle that someone you know might be going through.
