THE MAN WHO RAN AWAY FROM PAIN

THE MAN WHO RAN AWAY FROM PAIN

He ran away from home
where, he thought, all pain
began.
He went to another country
Where he discovered
the pain of leaving home.

THE MAN WHO RAN AWAY FROM PAIN

He ran away from home
where, he thought, all pain
began.
He went to another country
Where he discovered
the pain of leaving home.
