Against All Odds
I have held scars within me for my eyes only. I am not trying to be defensive but I don't want to let my guard down. I look up seeing your reflection from the other side. Two hazel eyes trying to figure me out. The pressure is breaking over me I escape before I can barely breathe.
I ran for my life not even knowing where I was going. All I knew was that I had to get away from you and the way you made me feel before it was too late. But somewhere along the way you caught up to me. I stumbled upon you because no matter where I ran to it always led back to you.
