Run! Hide!
Why? Where?
Because; and over there!
But--why?

I surely won't die
I don't need to run
I will stay here
I am having fun
I have no reason to fright
I am not alone
I am, with you tonight

I'm not afraid of commitment
I'm not startled by the unknown
I shall be safe
I know, from the wisdom you've shown

Yet you still tell me to hide?
There is no reason
I have you
To whom I always confide

What are you scared pf
Why should I hide?
Just move on, get over it,
It's too late,
I've tried

Just sort of random. But so deep at the same time. I feel this message can apply to alot of situations. I have applied this to many experiences in my life. Enjoy!
