I ran as fast as I could
I ran away from here
I ran away from you
I ran away from me
Until my heart and legs
Caused me to stop
I could run no more
Falling to the ground
With nothing more to give
Nothing more to lose
All hope disappearing –
Like a snake
Slithering away
I closed my eyes
And prayed
Poems and Petals 
Your Bible analogy of the snake and evil and praying to bring Jesus in and redemption in…. is wonderful .. Thank you. We all need stop running !

We fall when we run and can stumble when we walk. There is no safe way indeed. I guess, we should just stay and deal with “it” instead. Deal but not put up or run away. Very intriguing post!

I suppose there are somethings we cannot run far enough or fast enough from. The prayer was a good idea.
