running into walls

i ran away to california
and no, it did not heal me
i found instead,
mid-run
that i hit the very same walls
i pretended for so long
weren't there.

now that i'm home
i see the girl i left behind
had just been waiting all along.

we don't run from the things that hurt us
we run right into them
