Uncharacteristic Character

Unforgiving she was.
None of her emotions showed.
Characters where blurred.
Hearts where broken.
Around her was nothing.
Running away from fears.
Around her was desires.
Changes around that don't stop.
Tears ran down her frozen cheek.
Every day was the same.
Running and running from fears in the future.
Is life to change me.
Stay still while every one moves.
Today is the day to change.
I'm torn between life and not.
Can I stay or should I go?
