Running.
I hit the ground running
and never broke a stride
never gave you reason
enough to hide.
yet you took my trust
and tossed it aside,
who knew that your betrayal
was so easy to find?
It was complacent
believing
you were on my side
But you turned out
to be an ordinary thief
the kind I deride.
no break in my stride,
still running.
I love the concept of this poem…physically running or just moving away from this bad relationship. Beautiful concept and flow of poem. I love how it begins with “Running. I hit the ground running” and then ends with…”still running.”
Thank you!
