Of course I ran.
I couldn’t run fast enough.
And I didn’t want to run
I needed to run
Like my whole body was on fire
like I wanted to crawl out of my skin
peel it off
throw it in the water
and never look at it again
I just needed to breathe
like the whole world was looking at me
and I needed them to stop
close your eyes
turn around
STOP
don’t look at me
don’t decode me
…
