Rolling Away

By Shaire Blythe

I need to see the way I need to see to face the day and run with it

To think has led me astray, but put me right back in my place before

Give me more

I’ve took the hits and wrecked the ships of men faded in waves that lessens or hardens blows

I don’t know

Anymore

Keep it that way

I don’t wanna have to change

Think I’m rolling away

I have no strength to stay

Hearts are weak, I’ve seen the veins that make you wanna walk away

So go on

Just move along

Trying to place a great escape but cannot find my safest space

To hide and stay alive

Please don’t keep it that way

I have everything to lose

Think I’m rolling away

If there’s nothing left to lose

Give me better

I beg of you

Straight to the treasures

After the hardest pain

I know you see me standing tall

I know you see me giving all

Like I have never lost a war

Ain’t that what you made me for?

Guess I don’t have to stay

No, not anymore

Better off that way

My presence has run its course
