Faltering Halfway

I feel like I'm
Running, from the
World, from life,
From everything

I'm watching you
Walk away,
Screaming inside because
I know I won't see you again.

I'm listening to
My heart falter,
Thudding pathetically. I know
It's breaking in my chest.

I feel like I'm
Running, trying
So desperately
To escape...

I can't wait for
You to leave,
But I can't bear
To let you go
