Running

I run.
You might think that means I do track
Or take morning runs to blow off steam.
I don’t mean that kind of running.
The kind I mean is running from problems.
I don’t want to face them.
I hate being confrontational.
Anyone who knows me would know that.
I can’t even be confrontational with myself.
So I run
Like I always do.
I mean I find ways to face them head on,
But none of them are really powerful.
They don’t fix it.
Maybe just a temporary bandage to cover the wound.
