The story of the runaway

She thought they were special
She thought they were different.
She thought they were happy,
She thought they were inseparable.
Yet she was deceived by what she thought.

Behind closed doors
Was another side to her life.
The side she never knew off;
Once the veils were lifted
She saw the light.

Torn apart by secrets,
By anger, by jealousy.
Her heart melted,
Sadness took over.

Ashamed by what she believed
Afraid she would be like them.
Her fight for survival
Her longing for freedom
Began that moment.

She never thought it was possible
At least not to her.
The act they put up
When anyone was near
Was almost unbelievable..
Could pass of to be real!

Yet,as she watched the show
As she played the role;
She wanted to scream.
She wanted to flee!

Her heart screamed run
But her feet said no.
She didn't know what to do,
She had no place to go.

Torn apart by secrets
All covered by lies
she watched them go by
As if everything was all right.

Her heart ached for comfort
Her knees unsteady
Her eyes filled with tears
As she tries to look around,
For some one she knows
For someone who cares.

"Why did this happen?
This must not be!
Cant they hear me?
Cant they see
The same way i see?
the same pain i feel?"

Alone and lonely
She tries not to think
About how they deceived her,
Or about how she felt.

She prays that shes dreaming
But gets knocked between the eyes
To remind her of reality
To tell her to run.
