Running

I was always running

Running, running

My favorite hobby;

I was running when I saw your eyes

I had to fight the urge

That little voice

Constantly jelling at me

“Run, run!!”

But those ocean eyes

Kept calling me,

They were like mermaids

Pulling me to cliffs

Your body was my quicksand,

I tried to run away

But always find my head

Just above the sand

Run, run

My legs seemed to get up

My legs seemed to give up

My legs walked right in your arms
