Had to Run

Had to Run

Had to break the chain
Not worried about the pain

Running thru a field
Must not stop or yield

I think I hear shots flying around
Can’t make myself hit the ground

God please hear my call
I don’t want to fall

Felt forced to be someone I didn’t want to be
i had to run to be free

Must run to the top
That’s the only place I’m allowed to stop

Feel like I should just keep going
To a place where greatness is flowing

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
