Avoidance

Doing …
Chronically busy,
 overwhelmed. 
Running to keep up,
 but never to catch up
 with myself.

Going …
Travel,
 take a trip,
 a journey. 
Stay for a while,
 build a life,
 never leave.

Being …
It’s not procrastinating,
 brushing it off. 
It’s not shelving it,
 for a rainy day. 
It’s not running away,
 leaving it all behind. 

It is pretending 
 heit didn’t even exist,
 Ever. 
Because Stopping, 
 or Looking,
 or Thinking,
Will Break Me.
