This path, lined by brown and green, stretches ahead of me
Such distance to my eyes, so far to make the end
My legs they move yet it seems no progress
Like a stagnant moment in my journey, my heart is pulled
But I cannot get there, it seems so long, so unfair
Circumstance, not of mine, like quicksand, it holds me
My body bound by this, I cannot fight, just feelings
All of this is inside me now, as I tread this path, a distraction
Head up I stride, purpose in my steps, determined to pretend
This will not change my life, I will not beg defeat, I will win
But for now, I am caught, held by others, waiting my moment
And until this time, as a way to distract
I took a walk in anger
