My Own Pace

I am leaping Bounding Running Sprinting Hurling myself towards the end of the runway They say I’m moving too fast That I need to slow down to see the sights To experience life To savor the moment But I can’t. I can’t slow down Because I am Bounding Running Sprinting Hurling myself towards the end of the runway So that eventually In a puff of smoke Before you even know it I will lift off And I will Begin To Fly.
