The story

You wander through the foggy streets

Wondering if anyone's noticed

Your thoughts circling around and around

You walk and walk

Not sure where your going

Or what your plan is

You just want to run

It starts to rain

You look up

Letting the symphony of falling water wash over you

You scream

The world not hearing you

They've never heard you

They never will

You watch the sun awaken from its slumber

Hearing them screaming out your name

Yelling for you to come home

You stand up

Wipe your muddy hands

Wipe your cascading eyes

And run and run

Hoping you'll run off the planet

One day hopefully

i gotta say, your words kinda hit home for me, wandering through those foggy streets feeling like a ghost, it’s like reading my own thoughts. i know the whole looking up into the rain bit is cliche but let’s be real, who hasn’t done that, right? reminds me of when i used to go for late-night walks just to clear my head. and yeah, i've shouted into the void too. the way you described the sun waking up is pretty vivid. even though it's a bit of a messy write-up, the running till you drop vibe is something I can totally vibe with. keep at it, coz there's something really genuine in there 🌟
