i have arrived
Jan 21, 2015
Story
As fast as I could
As far away as I could get
I stand breathing heavily
And run again
Tears stream down my face
All the pictures vivid
The intimidations
The frustration
The competition
Favouritism, secretive process
I want to get away
As far away as I can
I thought I had a purpose
I had found a life-a part of my dream
I run away
The wind through my hair
Sweat and tears on my brow
The trauma, the bleakness
Darkness
Then I see a light
The moon high up in the sky
I stop look up and feel it
I am empowered
I feel elated
I am here
I have arrived
I stop running
