OK, I wrote this like 2 weeks ago just out of boredom as always...But there was something different about it before I wrote it I had been seriously running away and then after a phone call with Katie I decided against this. So hopefully this will stop any of you from ever thinking of running away. This is intended as a Terra poem, you just gotta look for it! Oh yeah and ttSerenity and Dark Kitsune of Ra thanks for just setting the Teen Titans poetry bar high. I'm gonna try to get over it one day!


Out of Time

By: Muggleborn22

Running out of sight

To someplace far away

Where they won't find me

Neither night nor day

Tell no one

So no one tells

My secret life

On this secret dwells

Marching though the dark

Stumbling through the night

Exhausted by morning

And asleep by light

Footsteps behind my crack

Somewhere else a bird's wings flap

I make a bolted run

And I've bewildered the old chap

Energy exhausted

I search for a certain spot

Where I can relax and think

Until they have me caught

I must be cracking up

I think I see them come

Eyes wide and searching

Like I'm really that dumb

I slip into an alley's shadow

Praying for its protection

I go unnoticed

And run to my course's next section

I must find a place

Away from all the crime

And the pressure it brings

To my precious time

Suddenly I find it hard

To take life giving breath

And all goes black

This must be death

It came so fast

And with one final glance

I see the culprit's image

It was me with no last chance…
