The Exorcism of Oprah Winfrey

I hear her voice call out my name and I sigh....

gone was the girl

gone was the girl once innocent of love,...

We avoid the situation so we

Run away, Run away

We don't like what we see in the mirror so we

Run away, Run away

We act tough until it gets that way so we

Run away, Run away

We fear what we don't understand so we

Run away, Run away

We hate it when plans fail so we

Run away, Run away

We can't take it when we're overwhelmed so we

Run away, Run away

 

You can't handle your problems so you

Run away, Run away

You are hurt and broken so you

Run away, Run away

You have wounds that won't heal so you

Run away, Run away

You have a hell that became worse so you

Run away, Run away

You have a horrible past so you

Run away, Run away

You fear what might happen so you

Run away, Run away

 

I'm scared of myself so I

Run away, Run away

I'm pissed at everybody so I

Run away, Run away

I'm wanting to be left alone so I

Run away, Run away

I'm wanting to not be bothered so I

Run away, Run away

I'm tired of having to please everybody so I

Run away, Run away

I'm mad at the world so I

Run away, Run away

 

No matter how bad it hurts, no matter how much it stings, we must all learn to not run away when the going gets tough; you must remember that it all happens for a reason and that there is always light at the end of the dark tunnel and you will reach it; it may not be now, tomorrow, or next week, but things will get better. Running away won't make things better, it makes them worst and your problem won't be solved. I learned the hard way and it hurts even more to try to run from your problems because they come back ten times as bad. So hang in there and keep your chin up.

A very much needed message today! To many of us fold like cheap suits today and lose sight of goals when work is involved, or when they feel or think differently then others.

A poem that definitely spoke to me. The message was clear. I think if anybody feels like turning away from their pain or problems they should read this and think about what it says. Helpful, indeed.
