The Runner

Running far and fast, in her mind that is all she has.
To run far and fast, to get away from the demons of her past.
Running ever still, not stopping to catch a breath.
Her life has been a constant downhill. Filled with failure and not success.
No one could understand her pain, the disease she suffered from. 
The emotional pain she felt inside, that she so desperate tried to hide. 
But here she is at a breaking point. 
The demons in her life are gathered to overtake her.
So she runs far away from them, she runs to catch Jesus.
She feels if she can run fast and far enough God will catch her before she meets a ghastly end.
Save me she cries, so loud her voice but no words come out. 
Save me from this maddening hell I live in. Save me from the constant pain and death I feel. Save me from myself.
She runs, so fast and so far, running to get away from the broken heart, the diseased girl that didn't have any friends, the tortured soul that just wanted to be let in, the abandon child that prayed to live, a house divided can't stand. 
Run, run, far away, don't look back and you might be safe. 
In Jesus' arms I commit myself today, my hope and trust lies in him and my life will show that Jesus lives!!!!!!!
