I run. Not away.

Location

I'm not deep I'm not dark

I'm simple.

Not a simpleton, 

No. I have fun

Outside of the house

Outside of the box

 

I run and stay active

Face my problems: proactive

I'll tell you, the fact is 

I seek joy where most lack it.

 

Deep in the trails

Ascending through hills

Time stretches slowly

But I don't stand still

 

I move to the top of

the mountain

my mind.

 

Through pain I find pleasure

Serentity stress measures

I can't tell whether:

I'm content.

Mentally vacant.

Where the day went.

 

My heart is nurtured by Nature,

but most my friends do not thank her,

leaving me desolate in my element.

 

I want them to come,

yet they seldom do run.

Without them, I feel swayed

I still go, day to day.

I run.

Not away.
