Running Running

Running running, so hard and fast,

Running away, along the path,

Running to arms open wide

Running from them to hide,

Running with fear, sprinting with passion

Far away yet for home I am dashing.

Running running, my beating heart,

Up ahead the paths they part,

Which way to go? can never slow

Hold me tight or let me go,

I'm swept away

Afraid I'll stray.

Running Running my feet are torn,

Running forever fearing the storm

Running from future to save the past,

Running always I'll never last,

Running down stairs, fleeting on air,

My destination I am afraid and aware.

Running Running all the terrain,

Always a landscape never the same,

Running past trees across soft grass

By the caverns are waters of glass,

Running down hills muddy and steep,

Through the marshes treacherous and deep,

Climbing the mountains, slipping on stone ,

I am a hobbit all alone, bearing a ring I fight for the last of our home.
