Time To Run

These footsteps fell harder than yesterday’s Harder than most actually Nonetheless, the urge to take what is mine in the world and go is… Frustratingly close to the heart of who I thought I was. So these footsteps remind the world that running is….. These footsteps feel heavier than last week’s I guess the weight of it all finally reached my feet. Nonetheless, with cemented shoes like the ones my relativity wore before me I run. So these footsteps remind just me, that running is… There is nothing like running The wind at the back of you The rush of leaving what you know you are coming back to Only somehow the time spent away from it Feels like the hope you remember. These footsteps feel as if they have lead me astray Most of them guide me directly toward the impending finish line But it looks as if I have never started running. I’ve unknowingly unlaced my shoes Exposed my socks to the air they have so desperately been missing Sat down next to my problems And Talked to him about what running is.
