Echoing Thoughts

Echoing thoughts encircle me, and engulf me
into my own sinking madness and terror
the thoughts hang suspended and entangled
into their own blinding fear
briefly distracted ,ignoring me so, I run,
and run trying to escape
I don't get far without them noticing I am gone
the thoughts picking up speed into a race
leaving behind all distractions of fear and madness
And, so into the night
I'm leaving my own fears behind
I tell myself to keep on task
who will win this run you ask?
I couldn't tell you if i wanted
Only time will tell
and who knows if time will tell anyone of this gracious, spectacular, and fleeting race.
