(Oh God no...) WILL I EVER TRULY ESCAPE?

He fumbled around clumsily with the gun in his hands,
turning it over and over again along with the thoughts in his head.
"Will I ever escape this pain?"
I don't know.
"I've run so far, and I can keep running...
but will I ever truly escape?"
Damnit.
I don't know.
He threw the gun across the room in frustration and despair
and was left with his face in his hands,
sobbing on the floor once more.
