198 Entries for “runaway”

  1. Runaway makes me think lonely and cold. It makes me think of streets at midnight in the biting cold and chapped hands. It makes me think of loud drunken shouting in alleyways and you’re scared because you don’t know who is around the next corner and what, if anything, they’ll want from you. I’m scared of being that alone and isolated. I’m scared of being so sad you have to run.

  3. wow, what a word. I remember the first time I ran away, I was twelve and convinced to do so by a 28 year old man that worked for my parents. I was with him for 4 days and the whole time all I wanted was to go home.

    There was another man, after. He told me he knew I would run away again, because “Once you start, you never stop” he was right.

  4. runaway from fucking everything/ i can run away from you and yor infectious laugh and your piercing eyes. i can run away from your gaze adn your touch and i can run away from it all. i can run away from your lips but i surely wouldn’t get too far. for i am here and i am helpless and hopeless and infected.

  5. The young runaway stared intently down the aisle. She knew that face at the end. She’d seen it before. If only she could remember.. Scared, she strolled quickly towards the exit. Looking backwards, she made sure nobody was following her. When she got to the parking lot, she made a sharp left and headed towards the gas station. She really needed to use the restroom.
    After using the bathroom and washing her hands she unlocked the door and opened it. Staring straight at her was the young man yet again. Before she could say a word, he whispered, “I’m not here to hurt you. Follow me.” Sensing the adventure ahead, I silently walked after him without a clue of what would happen.

  6. i did that once. At least, i tell people I did. It’s not really running away if no one cares that you’re gone. maybe they did care… I don’t know. I’ve never asked. Anyway, I don’t regret it.

  7. I now have the song “She’s a Little Runaway” stuck in my head, but I can’t remember the artist.

  8. Once upon a time, there was a young girl who wanted to runaway to a wonderful land. She had heard about other young children who had runaway to this land, and she thought daily about what it would be like to runaway. Finally, she made up her mind that today would be the day she would runaway. She packed her bags and prepared to make her big escape.

  12. The girl became a runaway when she slammed the door on her fathers drug addiction and mothers narcissism. She left the family she so loathed behind and desired to begin a new.

  13. the girl was a runaway.. sometimes I wish I could be like her.. like i could escape from the craziness I call my family. I wish that they would understand that I need to be alone sometimes and I wish that they would let me do somethings to figure out by myself. most of all, i wish i could not run away from my fears, so i would have to face them someday.

  17. Run run run run runaway. Now if i ran away from home I gather I’d first camp under the bridge, where there is that renovation going on, where there is nice and dry floor. You need a warm jacket, a backpack, a knife – make it a swiss army knife, and enough money to bribe your way out.

  18. Runaway is something almost every teenager thinks about doing. To get away from stress, peer pressure, or parents. Running away has resulted in death, rape, and kidnap. I myself have pondered on the matter, but never gone through with it.

  19. I want to runaway all the time but I never know where to go. I don’t want to runaway to the streets or anything where I wouldn’t be comfortable. Maybe I want to run away with a love, why do I not have a love to runaway with? There’s nowhere for me to go. I’m stuck here, there is no running away.

  21. i always wanted to run away from home
    the thing was i had no idea where to go or where i’d end up. i was a scared little baby. i always wanted to wrap all my stuff in a red blanket and tie it to the end of a stick. typical runaway.

  27. She was a runaway, out on the streets, avoiding cops who would pick her up and take her back home, staying away from the pimps and the drug dealers – there was no way she was getting involved in that shit. She’d lost her dignity after only a day or two and started sifting through garbage cans for food.

  28. runaway little one, because you’re afraid, because you can’t seem to handle truth. Runaway little birdie, cause you got nothin’ left but your legs. No heart, no soul, no drive. Runaway and be a little bitch, cause you don’t know how to be real or how to fight.

    by Kunze on 03.25.2010
  29. Runaway right now. I’ll go too. Let’s head to the airport and take the first flight we see…anywhere. Let’s just go. Why on earth would stay here for this? Another day of getting a paycheck that doesn’t do enough and grappling with supervisors who don’t care. Let’s go – runaway with me.

  30. The runaway’s wide eyes were shocking white against the backdrop of chocolate skin. Look left. Look right. Dogs. Hear them barking. Run, run, run. Foot bleeding, stepped on stone. Eyes dart all around. Plunge into the river. Swim, swim, swim. Hear gunshots. Hear screaming and curses. Move arms, swim faster. Swim harder. Go, please, go; oh, God, please.

    Riverbank.
    Safety.
    Freedom, finally.

    (Tell me what you thought?)

  31. She ran from her home with a satchel slung over her back and fled down the darkened street with nothing but the sole purpose to be as far from her mother as was possible. Her face was flushed and her breathing hard, but nothing stoipped her for even a second.

    by Heather on 03.25.2010
  32. I am. That’s me. Will I ever be more? Even as an adult, I run from arguments, responsibility and anything that doesn’t suit me. As a child, running away saved my life… What does it do for me now? Of that, I am not sure.

    by TavyDay on 03.25.2010
  33. I used to think about running away from home, but that wouldn’t have been such a good idea. I liked my home, after all. I got along with my parents and my brothers, and life was pretty good. I entertained ideas about hitting the road with a sandwich wrapped in a bandanna, tied around a stick slung over my back, though. Now I think about running away a little differently – less like an abandonment, more like an adventure.

  34. The runaway horse was running down the street through the middle of town. Everyone heard him, and looked out their windows.

  35. Sometimes I find myself lost in the abyss of this world – a runaway. Far from my true home – caught between land and sea. I can only hear the call of yesterday and the cry of today. Tomorrow is never going to find me with my feet on its floor. My legs drag with yesterday’s sorrow. The weight of what I have run from. Where will I go?

  36. the boy couldn’t stand life in his small, dreary attic bedroom any longer. the draw of bright lights, bustle of people and was too much to resist.

    by Fraser Boyd on 03.25.2010
  37. Every time she saw a runaway dog, she’d approach carefully, quietly. She’d get just close enough to think, “What if this dog is vicious?” And then the dog would turn and run.

  38. I think of slavery and the Underground Railroad.

  40. I want to runaway sometimes. Its not like my life is bad, its just that I feel there is so much more out there. This is the time in my life, where I can go anywhere or do anything and here I am in Wisconsin. I could be at the sistine chapel or backpacking across europe.
