An Awful Lot of Running to Do

She ran;

Ran until her feet and calves and thighs hurt;

Until her lungs burned with the need for oxygen;

Her hair bounced to and fro, back and forth;

Hair that slowly came undone from its pony tail;

That had a glisten different from the one on her skin.

'Had she known the danger, would she have stayed home?'

She had thought it countless times;

Had tossed it around when she had time;

Tossed like he had been, like she was now;

Like he had taught her.

He had never found her;

Had disappeared into thin air;

Disappeared without so much as a peep since;

Without her;

Her hearts broke when she remembered;

Hearts that changed;

That became different.

'Became different, do you like it?'

Different, everything was different;

Everything from his face to his chastisement of her;

From someone she knew to a boy she'd never met;

Someone new stood by his side now;

New, so new she felt old in comparison;

So she ran.
