Yes, the poem i posted on here before these ones is the first. (Couldn't remember if i posted it to here or to one of my other blogging sits.)
The first one was inspired by a dream I ( Read more... ) -
Yes, I will run and hide till memories fade away
So, I realized that in a round about way, I am doing the very thing I always wanted to do. Run Away.
