Running

Running
Busy grandmother
         Running around town
                                         
Running around the house
Running in her mind
Never stopping to rest
Never stopping at all

Exhaustion hits
It sinks into her mind
It whispers, “REST FOREVER.”
As in a trance, she listens
She, alone, goes the medicine cabinet

Taking all she can gorge
She waits
                                 The voice inside her head still lingers
            It again whispers, “NOT FAST ENOUGH!”
She goes to the bathroom
With the dark blade of death

       Worried grandfather running around town
Running around the house
She’s running through his mind
Never stopping to rest











Never stopping at all.
