      TO RUN FEAR FREE  

I tense up 
As he passed 
Picking up the pace 
Very fast 
I’m sprinting now 
Get to the stop sign 
A light shines down 
A busy road 
with more cars 
Reassures my spirit 
My mind alert 
Races with the news 
Second guessing my 
Morning ritual
And route 
Do I change it up 
Leave a later time
Carry pepper spray
Is that the life 
We’ve designed? 
 
To run outside 
Alone for clarity 
Peace of mind   
It doesn’t seem fair 
My thoughts 
Spiral to despair.
I don’t have 
The answers
But I will believe
A generation of women 
Ahead of me— 
Who will all
Run fear 
Free.
